Hold Your Head High - Heartless Bastards
***Played in bars, throughout the song Erika pulls-off and hammers-on the low E 
string with her first finger***


F#5   B5   F#5   B5   F#5

F#5                      B5                  F#5
I made a lot of choices most have not been wise
F#5                                     B5                   F#5
But I have some really good friends I?ve been fortunate to find
F#5                                 B5                       F#5
They get me through the lonely days when I want to stay inside myself
F#5                          B5             F#5
They get me out of my shell out into the world 


F#5   C#5          B5               F#5
I am coming back I?m coming back again
F#5    C#5                  B5                  F#5
I had lost everything and then I got it back again
F#5      C#5            B5           F#5
I dug myself so deep, deep into a hole
F#5                      C#5     B5          F#5 
That getting out was so far beyond my control


F#5                          B5             F#5
In the past I?ve always had trouble on my mind
F#5                               B5             F#5
I?m gonna take that feeling and leave it far behind
F#5                     B5                    F#5
As I go down this path traveling through my fate
F#5                  B5    F#5
Lately I have begun to awake


F#5                C#5             B5                 F#5
It started out in Jackson and we moved across the land 
F#5             C#5              B5         F#5
And all the dehydration turned soil into sand
F#5       C#5           B5          F#5
And then one day they hauled me away
F#5                   B5         F#5
And I was out there, out on my own 


F#5  B5                     F#5
The thieves they came and went
F#5        B5             F#5
They took everything in site
F#5       B5              F#5
And then we got it back again
F#5 B5        F#5
Oh I had to fight

 
F#5             C#5            B5                      F#5
And now then I woke up from the middle of the strangest dream
F#5                          C#5                   B5            F#5
And everyone was there that I ever knew and they all began to sing
F#5                          B5           F#5
Hold your head high just as high as you can
F#5                             B5                  F#5
Things will work out soon things will come round again
F#5                                         B5                F#5
You see I?ve got this fascination with all the wrong ways to go
F#5                     B5             F#5
I get lost even in the places that I know 


F#5   B5   F#5   B5   F#5   B5   F#5   B5   F#5

F#5                          B5           F#5
Hold your head high just as high as you can
F#5                             B5                  F#5
Things will work out soon things will come round again ooh
F#5                          B5           F#5
Hold your head high just as high as you can
F#5                             B5                  F#5
Things will work out soon things will come round again
