White Flag

Dm
Am C Dm

[Verse 1]
Am  C   Dm         Am       C 
  I lost my words lingering in
         Dm
 the dark
            Am                  
Hard times, don't you know we've 
 C            Dm
seen them all
                     Am
Ain't one to preach
              C               Bb  
Ain't one to speak on what I don't
         C
 know
                        Dm
I lay that burden down
               Am             C   
With one hand, we're reaching for 
         Dm
the sky
             Am       C           
And one hand, holding on for life
  Dm

                  Am      C        
I won't raise my, I won't raise my 
Bb
white flag
C
In this life

[Chorus]
              Dm        Am      C
The moment I surrender, bury me 
            Dm
in the ground
        Am                C       
I'd die before you see me take a 
     Dm
bow
                    Am           C
You know we all got, you know we 
       Bb
all got, you know we all got a lot 
to lose
        Dm                    Am  
I won't surrender, praise the lord
     C                 Dm
 but soul to take [?]
            Am          C         
Thank God I live to die another 
   Dm
day
                    Am           C
You know we all got, you know we 
       Bb
all got, you know we all got a lot 
to lose
C
I won't raise my white flag, 'till 
I'm through

Am C Dm

[Verse 2]
Am   C     Dm       Am         
    I found my way following a 
C             Dm
trail of hurt
               Am        C        
'Cause my name ain't no stranger 
           Dm
to the dirt
                        Am         
It's been dragged around, it's been
 C             Bb
 kicked around
                             C
They left it lyin' there for dead, 
whoa
Dm        Am        C           
But I defy before I lose the 
    Dm
right
                 Am            C  
And take the time to watch the 
        Dm
river rise
                  Am      C        
I won't raise my, I won't raise my 
Bb
white flag
C
In this life

[Chorus]
              Dm        Am      C
The moment I surrender, bury me 
            Dm
in the ground
        Am                C       
I'd die before you see me take a 
     Dm
bow
                    Am           C
You know we all got, you know we 
       Bb
all got, you know we all got a lot 
to lose
        Dm                    Am  
I won't surrender, praise the lord
     C                 Dm
 but soul to take [?]
            Am          C         
Thank God I live to die another 
   Dm
day
                    Am           C
You know we all got, you know we 
       Bb
all got, you know we all got a lot 
to lose
C                                 
I won't raise my white flag, 'till
    Dm
 I'm through

[Bridge]
                 Am       C        
I won't raise my, I won't raise my
Dm

                 Am             C 
I won't raise my white flag until 
            Bb
I'm through
Bb
Until I'm through, yeah
Bb  C

[Chorus]
              Dm        Am      C
The moment I surrender, bury me 
            Dm
in the ground
        Am                C       
I'd die before you see me take a 
     Dm
bow
                    Am           C
You know we all got, you know we 
       Bb
all got, you know we all got a lot 
to lose
        Dm                    Am  
I won't surrender, praise the lord
     C                 Dm
 but soul to take [?]
            Am          C         
Thank God I live to die another 
   Dm
day
                    Am           C
You know we all got, you know we 
       Bb
all got, you know we all got a lot 
to lose
C
I won't raise my white flag, no,
C                                 
I won't raise my white flag, 'till
    Dm
 I'm through

[Bridge]
                 Am       C        
I won't raise my, I won't raise my
Dm

                 Am             C 
I won't raise my white flag until 
            Dm
I'm through
                 Am       C        
I won't raise my, I won't raise my
Dm

                 Am             C 
I won't raise my white flag until 
            Dm
I'm through
