[ intro ] Bm G A D Bm G A

[ verse 1 ]

Em D G A
out on your own with your own self reliance
Em G A
you’ve got no one to watch your back
D G Bm A
you find yourself caught with no strong alliance
Em G Bm A
you’ve been left open for attack

[ verse 2 ]

Em D G A
over your head the condition is graver
Em G A
you’ve given ground you can’t retrieve
D G Bm A
the cards are stacked and they’re not in your favour
Em G Bm A
but you’ve got an ace up your sleeve

[ chorus ]

D G Bm A
get on your knees and fight like a man
D G Bm A
you’ll pull down strongholds if you just believe you can
D G Bm A
your enemy will tuck his tail and flee

get on your knees and fight like a man

[ verse 3 ]

Em D G A
under the gun , you’ve got no place to hide
Em G A
backed in the corner on your own
D G Bm A
this is one storm you are destined to ride
Em G Bm A
one way to leave the danger zone

[ chorus ]
