Am                 G
Everybody needs somebody

F                      E
Don't try and fake the folly

Am              G
Anytime it cuts we all bleed

F                 E
Everyone's got the same needs

    Am                        G
I'm standin' on the hill I'll die on

   F                    E
So let me go and get my fight on

Am               G
Down to my final heartbeat

F                      E
Nobody gonna take what I believe
[Verse 1]
        Am                        G
I never thought for a second when I asked You to save me

         F                         E
That I'd ever be steppin' into the waves that would take me

       Am                        G
To the valleys we crawled or the peaks that we've run

         F                          E
From the blessings poured out to me losin' my son

          Am                         G
You're my way and my truth, I'm a disciple of You

            F                                 E
Through the highs and the lows, my heart will always stay true

           Am                           G
They could put me in chains, they could lock me away

           F                       E
They would slay me in vain, I will always remain
[Chorus]
            Am                                    G          E
I'll put my life on it (put my life on it, put my life on it)

           Am                                G E
Willin' to die for it (willin' to die for it)

Am
No matter what they say

     F           E
If I ever go M.I.A.

             Am
They took my life for it (they took my life for it)

            G                       E
I'll put my life on it (I'll put my life on it)

            Am
I'll put my life on it
