Simple tab, simple chords. Easy enough, it's in Standard tuning. 1st Chorus:
          C
I'm gonna hold on--

                 F         C    G
'cause what I believe in is so strong

           F    C       
No matter how long, no one

                F              C  G   C
Can tell me I'm wrong--I ain't goin' down
C I had a baby at fifteen--
F
daddy never did forgive me

C                            G
I never heard from the guy again

C
I had to drop outta high school--

F
everybody treated me so cruel

C                          G        C 
But I didn't give in and give her away
(Repeat Chorus)
     Am    Em                  F 
Her smile got me through the day--

                     C
and every night I'd pray

                    G 
I could give her enough

   Am         Em            F
At night I'd lie awake and cry--

                C
hopin' we'd get by

                           G
'Cause you can't live on love

           D
I worked night and day to keep us goin'

             G
Through the sweat and tears
without her knowin'
D                                  A
It was worth it just to watch her grow

             D
Oh, oh, at least I was able to hold her

  G
Whenever she needed my shoulder

 D                   A      D
I'm so glad I never let her go
2nd Chorus:
D
I'm gonna hold on--

                 G    D          A
'cause what I believe in is so strong

           G    D       
No matter how long, no one

                G              D  A   D
Can tell me I'm wrong--I ain't goin' down

     Bm    A                  G
Her smile got me through the years--

                 D
dried away the tears

                    A
And filled me with hope

    Bm         A            G
At night I'd lie awake and cry--

 Bm                 D
prayed we would get by

                        A 
And for the courage to cope
Oh, oh, oh
     Bm    A                  G
Her smile got me through the day--

                     D
and every night I'd pray

                    A
I could give her enough
Repeat 2nd Chorus (2x)
D                        G
No one can tell me I'm wrong

        D  A    D
I ain't goin' down
