    Verse:
    ------

    In this proud land we grew up strong


    Cm Bb/C Cm

    We were wanted all along


    Bb/D Eb Ab/Eb Eb

    I was taught to fight, taught to win


    Bb Eb/Bb Bb

    I never thought I could fail


    Cm Bb/C Cm

    No fight left or so it seems


    I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
    I've changed my face, I've changed my name
    But no one wants you when you lose

    Chorus:
    -------
    Don't give up - 'cos you have friends
    Ab/F Eb/G Cm7/Ab

    Don't give up - you're not beaten yet


    Ab/F Eb/G Cm/Ab

    Don't give up - I know you can make it good


    Ab/F Eb/G Ab Bb

    [verse]
    Though I saw it all around
    Never thought I could be affected
    Thought that we'd be the last to go
    It is so strange the way things turn

    Drove the night toward my home


    The place that I was born, on the lakeside
    As daylight broke, I saw the earth
    The trees had burned down to the ground

    [chorus]
    don't give up - you still have us
    don't give up - we don't need much of anything
    don't give up - 'cos somewhere there's a place where we belong
    Ab Bm Eb Ab/Eb-Eb
    Bridge:
    -------
    Rest your head
    Bb Eb/Bb-Bb

    You worry too much


    Eb Ab/Eb-Eb

    It's going to be alright


    Bb Eb/Bb Bb

    When times get rough, you can fall back on us,


    Eb Ab Eb

    Don't give up, please don't give up


    Eb Bb Eb Ab/Eb-Eb

    Got to walk out of here, I can't take anymore


    Eb Bb

    Going to stand on that bridge, keep my eyes down below


    Eb Ab

    Whatever may come and whatever may go,


    Eb Bb

    That river's flowing, that river's flowing


    Eb Bb Eb Ab/Eb-Eb

    [verse]
    Moved on to another town
    Tried hard to settle down
    For every job, so many men
    So many men no-one needs

    [chorus]
    Don't give up - 'cos you have friends
    Don't give up - you're not the only one
    Don't give up - no reason to be ashamed
    Don't give up - you still have us
    Don't give up now - we're proud of who you are
    Don't give up - you know it's never been easy
    Don't give up - 'cos I believe there's a place
    Ab Bb

    There's a place where we belong


    Bb Eb

    End Section:
    ------------
    [Cm bass riff]

    Don't give up, don't give up, don't give up


    Eb F Cm
