G               Em                   D      
 Save your words, don't give them up
                            G
 All of them are not enough
               Em            D
 To make them see or understand
G                    Em
 Sometimes the truth
          D
 Is a line, you walk a while
             Am      G
 Just to find
          C      D
 You're alone


       C
 Cause everybody thinks they know
 G            D
 Everything about it
   C                            G    D
 Sticks and stones again and again
     C
 But everybody has to know
 G                D
 In the end the truth will show
  Em            D            C
 Try to stay strong, until then
            Em         D               G
 Keep your head up and eyes straight ahead


 G      Em      D


G               Em             D
 No winners here in this game
                                    G
 Of pushing guilt and passing blame
            Em              D
 So stand aside and let it go
G            Em               D
 A better sky, is on it's way
                                    Am      G
 So please just try to sit and wait
              C      D
 I know it's hard


       C
 Cause everybody thinks they know
 G            D
 Everything about it
   C                            G    D
 Sticks and stones again and again
     C
 But everybody has to know
 G                D
 In the end the truth will show
  Em            D            C
 Try to stay strong, until then
            Em         D               
 Keep your head up and eyes straight 


   Am
 Ahead of us 
          Em                          D
 There is something we're needing to find
      Am         C      D
 Up ahead of us

       C
 Cause everybody thinks they know
 G            D   G
 Everything about it


       C
 Cause everybody thinks they know
 G            D
 Everything about it
   C                            G    D
 Sticks and stones again and again
     C
 But everybody has to know
 G                D
 In the end the truth will show
  Em            D            C
 Try to stay strong, until then
            Em         D               G      Em      D
 Keep your head up and eyes straight ahead
                                       G      Em      D
 Keep your head up and eyes straight ahead
                                       C
