[Intro] C F C (x4) [Verse]
C
Wake and pray, work all day, walk past the places I used to lay

        G                  F         C
Now I'm paying my way, I'm paying my way

     C
Some days are hard, some days are long, some days I'm weak, some days I'm strong

    G                  F         C
I'm paying my way, I'm paying my way
[Link] C F C (x2) [Chorus]
    G                  F         C    
I'm paying my way, I'm paying my way

       G                 C
But my hopes are so much higher

               G             C
Don't count me out, I'm a survivor

     F
I've chased these dreams down city streets

G
Dead-end roads that no one sees

        F   G         C    
And I'm proud to be a fighter

Don't shut me out, don't hold me down. I'm right here, I'll be around!

        G                  F         C
Now I'm paying my way, I'm paying my way

     C
Some days are slow, some days fly by. Some days I laugh, some days I cry!

        G                  F         C
Now I'm paying my way, I'm paying my way

But my hopes are so much higher

Don't count me out, I'm a survivor

     F
I've chased these dreams down city streets

Dead-end roads that no one sees

And I'm proud to be a fighter

     F
When I look back and see your side

     G
When I look hard into your eyes

     C
When I take stock of what I've done

  F
I think about how far I've come
[Chorus]
       G                 C
But my hopes are so much higher

Don't count me out, I'm a survivor

       G                 C
But my hopes are so much higher

        F   G         C    
And I'm proud to be a fighter
