Em
Been kicked around so long
C Am
You're starting to get used to how it feels
Em
The taste of blood that's in your mouth
C Am
There's still somehow it always heals
Em
Don't know how you keep on getting up
C Am
From all those ghostly blows
Em
And all that pain that lingers
C Am
Deep down in the darkness where it grows
Chorus:
D C G
I know how hard it is
D C G
To keep your head up kid
D C
To keep your head up
Em
Kid
Em...C....Am

Verse 2: (same as first)
And there you sit on high
All tucked away and locked up in the clouds
Waiting for someone to finally
Come along and take you out
Into this bitter world
That also often treated you so cruel
When they turn away
You know that they will say that you're a fool
Chorus 2:
D C G
I know how hard it is
D C G
To keep your head up kid
D C G
I know how hard it is
D C Em
To keep your head up kid
Em... C.... Am
Verse 3: (same as 1)
And so patiently
You waited for a love to come along
Take you out into this bitter world
So often done you wrong
There you sit alone
And there you shed a solitary tear
Listening to a song
You think that no one else would ever hear
Chorus 3:
D C G
I know how hard it is
D C G
To keep your head up kid
D C G
I know hard it is
D C
To keep your head up
Bm
Keep your head up
C
Keep your head up
Bm
Keep your head up
C
Keep your head up
Pretty rough, but it's a start.
