             OOOOoOOooOOh
B                                A
When you want to do something that's new
E                            F#
And it seems really, really hard to do
B                                A
You feel like quitting, you feel you're through
E                          F#
Well I have some advice for you

B
Don't give up
F#
Keep on trying
B
You're gonna make it
F#
I ain't lying
B                   F#
Don't give up, don't ever quit
B                    F#
Try and try and you can do it
B
Don't give up, yeah

B                       A
If you want to catch a ball
E                              F#
But you're having no luck at all
B                                      A
The ball hits your head, it hits your nose
E                                 F#
It hits your belly, your chin and toes
B                             A
Well, try and try and try again
D#                         E
Keep on trying and soon end
B                                   A
You put your hands out in the air
D#
You'll catch the ball
E
Yes this I swear

B
Don't give up
F#
Keep on going
B
You're on a boat,
F#
So keep on rowing
B                   F#
Don't give up, don't ever stop
B                          F#
Try and try and you'll come out on top
B
Don't give up

D                       A
You got yourself rollerskates
G                                  A
You put them on and you feel great
D                   A
You stand up, then you fall,
G                                  A
Don't think you can skate at all
A                      G
You get back up, then you trip,
A                      G
You skip and tip and slip, and flip
A                      G
You try and try and try some more
A                                   G             A
And soon you're skating across the floor

B                   A
Don't give up, keep on moving,
B                                  A
You're gonna get there, just keep on grooving
B                 F#
Don't give up, don't pack it in
B                  F#
Try and try, and you'll win
( B                  F#         )
Don't give up, no no no
Don't give up, no no no
Don't give up, no no no
Don't give up, no no
B
Don't give up!
