[INTRO]
[B] [Em]
[VERSE]
There will be mornings you'll be [D]utterly defeated by your [A]laces [A(add4)] [A(add2)]
[Em]Days where every look looks conde[D]scending
Empty smiles on empty [A]faces
The same old places this stunning stasis [C]
[PRE-CHORUS]
Just let your spirit slip aw[G]ay
Let all your tr[C]oubles crumble and dec[G]ay
There’s more than one way [C]out if at the end of the [G]day
You’re at the end of your [D]rope [F#]
[CHORUS]
Never give up [Bm]hope
Never let yourself [D]be defeated
If you tried it [E]once you can try [E7]again
A new day will [G]follow
(There’s always to[G]morrow)
Never give up [Bm]hope
Never listen to the [D]unbelievers
You will take your [E]falls, you will hit your [E7]walls
Don't give in to [G]sorrow
There’s always to[G]morrow
[VERSE]
[Em]An everlasting farcical disaster
[D]You play your part, you march the march
You [A]don’t complain, you find a way
Another day sur[Em]rounded by a cast of half-wit [D]bastards
Grinning masks amidst the [A]grey
Yet you stay [A]sane and through the pain
[PRE-CHORUS]
The frozen [C]pain of glass
You strain to cast your [G]gaze upon the path you have to [C]tread
And in your head that Lenin [G]dread
the fucking roads have all been [C]trod
And there’s no way and there’s no [G]God
And god oh god this goddamn [D]weather
Will last forever but you must [F#]never, never, never
[CHORUS]
Never give up [Bm]hope
Never let the odds [D]overwhelm you
You know the game gets [E]hard, don't throw in your [E7]cards
Don't give in to [G]sorrow
There’s always to[G]morrow
[BRIDGE]
I’ve done [Gm]everything I can
I’ve done my [D#]best and I
And I’ve tried so [Gm]hard to find my way out of this [D#]mess but I
But I’m so [Bb]tired [D#]
I swear to you I’ve [Bb]tried [D#]
And sometimes I just want to [Cm]give up
Just give up and stay here and [D#]live
But I know there’s no point in [Cm]denying that I will keep [D#]trying
I’m a [Cm]lot of things
But [D#]I’m not a quitter
I will [Dm]never give up, never [D]give up, never [F#]give up, never give up
[CHORUS]
Never give up [Bm]hope
Never let yourself [D]be defeated
You tried it [E]once, you tried it [E7]again
There’s always to[G]morrow
[OUTRO]
N.C. Bm
Hold on to your faith
You’ll find another [D]way
After acid and [Em]gas and guns
And [Em7]razors and rope
You [G]may wanna live
But [G]baby don’t give up
N.C. Bm
Hope
