Notes:
1.  This is my interpretation of this song, built on the preceding version.
2.  Chorus in brackets e.g (Come on baby).
3.  The Lead is played as a hammer-on C/E and G/B and a slide from F/A to G/B.

Verse 1:
Am/E
Don't give up,
       Em
You're gonna see tomorrow
      C         C/G   Am/E
That you'll be on your feet again,
Am/E               Em
Sometimes the world's gonna knock you over.
        C                Am/E
But you will see who you are your friends.


Chorus 1:

Verse 2:
B          Em
Your faith and patience will be your soldiers,
   C          C/G      Am/E
To guide you through your troubled times.
B             Em
Just put one foot in front of the other,
  C           C/G      Am/E
The battles are inside your mind.
B          Em 
You have the power to face your demons,
C          C/G     Am/E                  
No matter how they go on time.
B            Em
And rid yourself of your fear and weakness,
     C              C/G       Am/E
So you can start to live your life.
