(Capo 1st fret)
It's [G]funny how they [C]shoot you down
When your [G]hands are held up [C]high
And you [G]open up your [C]heart and soul
But [G]that's not enough for [C]most
[Em]I remember this much
There is [D]nothing
You shouldn't [D/C]speak of
If [D/B]you've got something to [D/A]say
And there's [D]no one
To be [D/C]scared of
Just [D/B]get them out of the [D/A]way
[G]GOING OUT IN A [C]BLAZE OF [D]GLORY
[G]My heart is open [C]wide
G D*
You can take anything that you want from me
there is [Am]nothing left to [D]hide
[G]GOING OUT IN A [C]BLAZE OF [D]GLORY
[G]my hands are held up [C]high
D* Am
I'm learning how to hit back
I'm [D7]learning how to [G]fight[C]
G C (repeat)
The [G]law of the [C]jungle says
You [G]look after your[C]self
But [G]I remember this [C]much
I [G]love as I've been loved [C]myself
[D]Don't forget what I told you now
When the [D/B]question keeps on [D/C]coming
And it's [D/A]How much more can you take
[D]When they've ripped your clothes to [D/B]pieces
Shouldn't [D/C]you be gone by [D/A]now
But you keep on
[G]GOING OUT IN A [C]BLAZE OF [D]GLORY
[G]Setting your sights for the [C]sky
G D*
They can offer you anything at all
[Am]But your dreams must not be [D]sold
[G]GOING OUT IN A [C]BLAZE OF [D]GLORY
[G]No price is high [C]enough
D* Am
I'm fighting back with feeling
[D7]I'm fighting back with [G]love
[Bm]When the nails are [C]biting into your hands
[Bm]And the cross is [C]heavy on your [Bm]heart
Now is the [C]time to really make a stand[D]
MY HANDS ARE HELD UP HIGH
(instrumental)
[G]GOING OUT IN A [C]BLAZE OF [D]GLORY
