verse 1 

          C 
You’ll be knocked out 
Come around 
Shot down 
               Gm 
Shatter on the stony ground 
                 Bb 
Yeah take it from me 
               F 
It’s how it’ll be 

                 C 
Your dreams will come true 
Fall through 
Screw you 
              Gm 
Batter you to black and blue 
                  Bb 
Yeah take it from me 
               F 
It’s how it’ll be 


Pre-Chorus 

                       C 
Love’s gonna leave you broken 
                      Gm 
Time’s gonna work you over 
                    Bb 
You get up, you get up 
                 F 
You keep rolling on 


                       C 
Life’s gonna bring you glory 
                                Gm 
But there’s another side to the story  
                      Bb 
You get up and suck it up 
                 F 
You keep rolling on 


verse 2 

           C 
But if you crash land 
       Gm 
In the quicksand 
        Bb 
I will pick you up  
              F 
I’ll pull you out 

           C 
And if the world shakes 
             Gm 
Your brittle heart breaks 
        Bb 
We will patch it up 
              F 
We’ll work it out 
   C          Gm 
La la la la la la 
         Bb 
We will patch it up  
              F 
We’ll work it out 

           C 
You’ll be on track 
On the rack 
Bounce back 
                Gm 
Wheeling down a bumpy road 
                  Bb 
Yeah take it from me 
                  F 
That’s how it’ll be 

            C 
Through the good times 
The sad times 
          Gm 
Oh off you go 
                Bb 
But take it from me 
             F 
Whatever you need 


Pre-Chorus 

                       C 
Love’s gonna leave you broken 
                      Gm 
Time’s gonna work you over 
                    Bb 
You get up, you get up 
                 F 
You keep rolling on 


                       C 
Life’s gonna bring you glory 
                                Gm 
But there’s another side to the story  
                      Bb 
You get up and suck it up 
                 F 
You keep rolling on 


verse 3 

           C 
But if you crash land 
       Gm 
In the quicksand 
        Bb 
I will pick you up  
              F 
I’ll pull you out 

           C 
And if the world shakes 
             Gm 
Your brittle heart breaks 
        Bb 
We will patch it up 
              F 
We’ll work it out 

          C 
When your world cracks open 
          Gm 
When your heart is broken 
        Bb 
We will patch it up  
              F 
We’ll work it out 
 

                       C 
Life’s gonna bring you glory 
                                Gm 
But there’s another side to the story  
              Bb 
We'll patch you up 
               F 
We'll work it out 


Outro 

           C 
And if the world shakes 
             Gm 
Your brittle heart breaks 
        Bb 
I will patch it up 
              F 
We’ll work it out
