VERSE 1:
[G] You woke the morn[D2]ing up
Running off my d[Am7]arkest night
The longest light I've se[Esus4]en
[G] Here goes a chance I[D2] know
Cashing in on a[Am7]ll my chips
Let all my ships co[Esus4]me fly
PRECHORUS 1:
These d[Cmaj7]ays, a little bit l[Em]onger than the [D]last
And all of these[Cmaj7] ways, a little bit st[Em]ronger than the [D]past
And your[Cmaj7] light, found m[Em]y bottle in t[D]he night
[Em]Gave me second l[D]ife, [Em]kept me in this f[D2]ight
CHORUS:
And I w[G2]on't back d[D2]own
I w[G2]on't turn ar[C]ound and around
And I w[G2]on't back d[D2]own
Doesn't [C]matter what comes crashing down
I'm s[Em]till gonna stand my [D]solid ground

VERSE 2:
[G] You found me once and f[D2]or all
I laid it down in the s[Am7]inking ground
The hopeless undert[Esus4]ow
[G] Singing out the gent[D2]le sound
Rattling through my[Am7] smoking screens
My broken dreams la[Esus4]st night
PRECHORUS 2:
These d[Cmaj7]ays, a little bit l[Em]onger than the [D]last
And all of your[Cmaj7] ways, a little bit st[Em]ronger than the [D]past
And all of your[Cmaj7] light, found m[Em]y bottle in t[D]he night
[Em]Kept me in this f[D]ight, [Em]gave me second l[D2]ife

[Dsus4/F#]Hallelu - [G]jah [Dsus4/F#]ripped through my v[G5/E]eins
I [Dsus4/F#]heard the hammer [G]drop
My [Dsus4/F#]blood in the r[G5/E]ain
[Dsus4/F#]Hallelu - [G]jah [Dsus4/F#]came like a t[G5/E]rain
When [Dsus4/F#]all is [G]lost
