Chords with lyrics

FF
Not without a purpose and it's not without a fight
G+G
I've got three tales to tell you so please sit tight
FF
C majorC
It's the story of three underdogs who've grown to see their light
C majorC
Not without a purpose, not without a fight
(Verse)
G5G5 ........................
Been away for far too long, you're on my mind
.............. F5F5 ............
Got your picture and I stare at it all the time
G5G5 ..................
Minutes turn to hours, hours into days
........... F5F5 ............
And as each one passes by it feels all the same
(Pre-chorus)
G5G5
But the lights they go dark, Man In Black on the P.A.
G5G5 (Power slide)
Walk up the stairs as one again to decimate the stage
(Chorus)
F5F5
Not without a purpose and it's not without a fight
G5G5
Our spirit lives forever blinded by the city lights
F5F5
C5C5
If we keep our act together we might make another night
C5C5
Not without a purpose, not without a fight
(Verse)
G5G5 .............
Hey, I was always just another average kid
.............. F5F5
Looking up to the Pistols, idolizing Sid
G5G5 .............
I guess my parents never really felt the same
F5F5
Spikes and leather jackets hurt my family name
(Pre-Chorus)
G5G5
Now I'm on the streets, now I've been locked out
G5G5 (Power slide)
Friends and punk rock music were the only way out
(Verse)
G5G5 .....................
I started as a firm believer, now I own my doubts
......... F5F5 ......
As it's pretty clear a civil war has broken out
G5G5 .........................
A augmentedA Southie iron worker leaving work behind
.. F5F5 .............
As W.M.D. propaganda warped my fragile mind
(Pre-chorus)
G5G5
But now I've lived the truth, my eyes are open wide
G5G5 (Power slide)
E.T.S. to Boston leave an oil war behind
(Chorus)
F5F5
Not without a purpose and it's not without a fight
G5G5
Another poor kid caught up in a fire fight
C5C5
I do believe in Jesus and I pray to God tonight
C5C5
Not without a purpose, not without a fight
(Solo)
G5G5
(Bridge)
G5G5
Never give up, never give in, never walk away, always fighting
Never give up, never give in, never walk away, always fighting

And as each one passes by it feels all the same

Our spirit lives forever blinded by the city lights

If we keep our act together we might make another night

Our spirit lives forever blinded by the city lights

Not without a purpose, not without a fight
C5C5 (Hold)
