Em
Been kicked around so long

C                      Am
You're starting to get used to how it feels

Em
The taste of blood that's in your mouth

C                      Am
There's still somehow it always heals

Em
Don't know how you keep on getting up

C                      Am
From all those ghostly blows

Em
And all that pain that lingers

C                      Am
Deep down in the darkness where it grows

D            C      G
I know how hard it is

D           C        G
To keep your head up kid

D            C
To keep your head up

Em
Kid

Em
And there you sit on high

C                      Am
All tucked away and locked up in the clouds

Em
Waiting for someone to finally

C                      Am
Come along and take you out

Em
Into this bitter world

C                      Am
That also often treated you so cruel

Em
When they turn away

C                      Am
You know that they will say that you're a fool

D          C      G
I know how hard it is

D          C       G
To keep your head up kid

D          C         G
I know how hard it is

D          C         Em
To keep your head up kid

Em
And so patiently

C                      Am
You waited for a love to come along

Em
Take you out into this bitter world

C                      Am
So often done you wrong

Em
There you sit alone

C                      Am
And there you shed a solitary tear

Em
Listening to a song

C                      Am
You think that no one else would ever hear

D        C      G
I know how hard it is

D        C      G
To keep your head up kid

D        C      G
I know hard it is

D        C
To keep your head up

         Bm
Keep your head up

         C
Keep your head up

         Bm
Keep your head up

         C
Keep your head up
