Living

      G     C        Em      Am
Stuck in a rut you can't get out
      G     C        Em       Am
There's too much causing you doubt
     G       C       Em     Am
No cash, no job, no self-esteem
    G      C       Em     Am

If you got the gift you should 
    Am
use it
       G     C             Em     Am
Opportunity, don't want to lose it
       G        C                
Climb over the walls, break down 
Em       Am
all the doors
           G     C     E
When your future calls


[Pre-Chorus]

          Am      G            C
Don't let nothing hold you down
        Em                  Am   G
Nothing hold you down, down
 C E

          Am      G            C
Don't let nothing hold you down
        Em                 Am    G C
Nothing hold you down, down
