Verse:

            C5                                                                 G5
A new morning's laughing in your face, another day to knock you down
C5                                                    G5   
All alone, depressed and tired in that cold and soulless town
             C5                                                                     G5
Their mocking words cut like knives through your flesh and through your bones
             C5                                                        G5
If they only knew the pain that you've been through?

Chorus:
           F5                          C5
When life is such a burden
        A5                        C5
You better understand that we 
 F5                           C5
Wanna give you a helping hand
 D5                     G5 
To the kids we proclaim
      C5                                         
No need to be ashamed
F5               G5                               C5           G5 C5 G5
Hold fast, hold on, remain the same

Verse:
    C5                                              G5         
Never had much authority, you never had no luck
          C5                                               G5
No strength to find a way out of this haze where you are stuck
       C5                                                                  G5
But trust me, there will come a day, when you'll know where you belong
        C5                                                                 G5
Hold fast, young blood, true hope. This is your song!

Chorus:  
            F5                           C5
When life is such a burden
        A5                     C5
You better understand that we 
       F5                         C5
Wanna give you a helping hand
       D5                G5
To the kids we proclaim
        C5             A5   
No need to be ashamed
F5                 G5                           C5
Hold fast, hold on, remain the same
