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