Intro:

G#m*  F#*  E*  C#m*

Verse 1:

G#m
You've spent too long waiting on a change
F#                                     E
But it never came, did you wait in?vain?
                                       C#m
I?don't know your?name, but I know you well
G#m                                                  F#
I'm?just like you in that I had fight through every day
                                   E
Tryna numb the pain, drink it all away
                                        C#m
Smoke another strain, didn't know myself

Pre-Chorus:

G#m
I'm not gonna tell you it's okay (It's okay)
F#
Or to not complain (Not complain)
                    E
Or that it's a phase (It's a phase)
                 C#m
But you're not insane


Chorus:

                G#m
Even when your back's up against the wall
                F#
Even when you're down and almost out
                   E
When it looks the worst and getting worse
          C#m
Still alive, you can always try
                G#m
Even when your back's up against the wall
                F#
Even when your light is burning out
                   E
When it looks the worst and getting worse
           C#m
Still alive, you can always try


Verse 2:

G#m                                         F#
I know that it's hard, so don't get me wrong
                                   E
I don't want my words to be misheard

Or to make it worse
                    C#m
But I've been around
G#m                                        F#
We have all got our own heavy cross to bear
                                   E
It's a metaphor, like I said before

I can look at yours
                       C#m
'Cause I've been around


Pre-Chorus:

G#m
I'm not gonna tell you it's okay (It's okay)
F#
Or to not complain (Not complain)
                    E
Or that it's a phase (It's a phase)
                 C#m
But you're not insane


Chorus:

                G#m
Even when your back's up against the wall
                F#
Even when you're down and almost out
                   E
When it looks the worst and getting worse
          C#m
Still alive, you can always try
                G#m
Even when your back's up against the wall
                F#
Even when your light is burning out
                   E
When it looks the worst and getting worse
           C#m
Still alive, you can always try


Outro:

                 G#m
I've been knocked down so many times
               F#
I've been all blue so many times
                   E                                    C#m
I've been knocked down so many times, so many times, so many times
                  G#m
I've been knocked down so many times
                 F#
I've been knocked down so many times
                  E                                     C#m
I've been knocked down so many times, so many times, so many times
                 G#m
I've been knocked down so many times
               F#
I've been all blue so many times
                   E                                    C#m
I've been knocked down so many times, so many times, so many times
