Verse One:
E
 I've been striving all week long
G#m                                        C#m
 but I've got nothing to show but this song
      B
But that's got to mean something
E

 The lessons learned while I was on the floor
G#m                          C#m
 I have a feeling they might be worth even more
     B
And that's gotta mean something
N.C.
That's gotta mean something

Chorus:
E             G#m
I'll keep on trying
         C#m           B
Nothing worth it ever comes easily
E              G#m
Oh, sometimes pain
       C#m          B
is the only way to get to victory
E           G#m
  Wait and see
           G#m             B
Hold on to who you want to be, yeah

Verse Two:
E
 All the places I went wrong
G#m                                    C#m
 Sometimes it's even hard to sleep at all
     B
But God is doing something
E                                    G#m
The mess I've made is all being restored
                            C#m
Turns out is turned into an open door
     B
And I'm expecting something
     N.C.
I'm expecting something

Chorus:

E             G#m
I'll keep on trying
         C#m           B
Nothing worth it ever comes easily
E              G#m
Oh, sometimes pain
       C#m          B
is the only way to get to victory
E           G#m
  Wait and see
           G#m             B
Hold on to who you want to be, yeah

Bridge:

Just keep holding on a little more
E
Tomorrow we'll make it too the shore
A       E           G#m
This is what we're living for

So please don't give up

Nothing worth it ever comes easily
