You got to keep your head up high

Verse:
FF                G minorGm
Your bedroom carpet stained with rose wine
    Bb majorBb            FF
Empty's left behind, the morning after
              G minorGm
The distant purr of cars on soaking roads

And the street echoes the noise of laughter

 You wonder if your life is ever gonna turn out right again

Bridge:
C majorC       Bb majorBb       A minorAm      G minorGm
 Confused and battered by the motion of the changing tides
C majorC        Bb majorBb        A minorAm      G minorGm
 You're nearing empty and you've barely got the will to fight
C majorC      Bb majorBb       A minorAm       G minorGm
 You wonder if you're gonna live or if you will survive

Ohhh...

You got to keep your head up high
               FF
You got to keep your head up high
