Chorus:
C                                    F  C     C    G
I’m gonna hold on ‘cause what I believe in is so strong
           F   C                           F
No matter how long no one can tell me I’m wrong
 C      G  G   C
I ain’t goin’ down

Verse:
C                    F
I had a baby at 15   Daddy never did forgive me
C                           G
I never heard from the guy again
C                                 F
I had to drop out of high school  Everybody treated me so cruel
C                        G         C
But I didn’t give in and give her away

    Am     Em                F
Her smile got me through the day
                    C                      G
And every night I’d pray I could give her enough
     Am      Em           F                      C                                                             
At night I'd lie awake and cry hoping we'd get

by                                 
                         G
‘Cause you can’t live on love


Verse:
          D
I worked night and day to keep us goin’ 
              Bm
Through the sweat and the tears without her knowin’
G                                 A
It was worth it just to watch her grow
  D                                G
At least I was able to hold her whenever she needed my shoulder
 D                  A       D
I’m so glad I never let her go


Chorus:
          D                        G    D     D    A
I’m gonna hold on ‘cause what I believe in is so strong
         G    D                           G
No matter how long no one can tell me I’m wrong
D          A  D
I ain’t goin’ down

    Bm   F#m                 G
Her smile got me through the years 
               D                         A
Dried away the tears, and filled me with hope
    Bm       F#m           G                     D
At night I’d lie awake and cry pray we would get by
                       A
And for the courage to cope
