Bb Eb Am C F Am C F
[Verse 1]
Am C
Down to earth in the dirt
F
Used 'em up so I'm out of words
F
Barely breathing
Am C
Still alive as samurais
F
Cut me up and then down the sides
F
Stop the bleeding
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am C F
Did I say, say I know anything? 'Cause I don't
Am C F
But I will pay, pay double just to get what I want
[Chorus]
C Dm Am C
I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
C Dm
I keep swinging
Am Dm
Makes no sense, but I go again
C Dm Am F
'Cause I, I might just be dumb enough to keep on trying 'til I die
C Dm Am F
And I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
[Verse 2]
Am C F
Steady odds in the eyes, out of luck, but I roll the dice
F
Still believing
Am C F
Keep the faith, no time to pray, warming up for a Hail Mary
Got that feeling
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am C F
Did I say, say I know anything? 'Cause I don't
Am C F
Yeah, but playing safe, safe isn't really playing at all
F
At all
[Chorus]
C Dm Am C
I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
C Dm
I keep swinging
Am Dm
Makes no sense, but I go again
C Dm Am F
'Cause I, I might just be dumb enough to keep on trying 'til I die
C Dm Am F
And I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences
[Bridge]
Dm F
And it's hard when the fire keeps crawling up your sleeves
Dm
And it's harder than you ever thought that it could ever be
Am G
And a light in the dark is all you wanna see, you wanna see
F
And it's hard when the fire keeps crawling up your sleeves
Dm
And it's harder than you ever thought that it could ever be
Am G
And a light in the dark is all you wanna see, all you wanna see
[Chorus]
N.C. C
I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
C Dm
I keep swinging
Am Dm
Makes no sense, but I go again
C Dm Am F
'Cause I, I might just be dumb enough to keep on trying 'til I die
C Dm Am F
And I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
C Dm Am C
I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
C Dm
I keep swinging
Am Dm
Makes no sense, but I go again
C Dm Am F
'Cause I, I might just be dumb enough to keep on trying 'til I die
N.C.
And I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences
