          D             G                D
If you're lookin' for a fighter who'll defend you

G                                  D   A7
Love you for your freedom I'm your man

    D              G                 D
And I ain't gonna leave you for the crazy things you're doin'

E                              A7
Don't ask me to lend a helpin' hand

         D             G           D
You were such a pretty dream as I remember

         D                    G               D
You were young and strong and God was on your side

    D              G             D
The vision slowly faded like the wonder from your eyes

A7                                  D
You traded your compassion for your pride
[Chorus]
      D                G           D
But I still believe in all that believed in

      G                                D    A7
And I pray to God that you will in the end

       D              G                   D
You'll see the golden chances that you're wastin'

A7                            D
Be the lovin' beauty that you can
[SOLO] D G D G D A7 D G D A7 D [Chorus]
      D                G             D
And I still believe in all that we believed in (yeah yeah)

      G                                D    A7
And I pray to God that you will in the end

           D               G                  D
And you'll see the golden chances that you're wastin'

A7                            D
Be the lovin' beauty that you can
[Outro] D G D A7 D
