[Intro]
A E D G Am7 Am/F A

[Verse]
A            E    D                  G
Every time I find myself in this old bind
Am7          Am/F        A
Watching the death of my hopes.
A              E    D                G
In the ring so long gonna prove them wrong
Am7             Am/F                A
I'm not knocked out, but I'm on the ropes.

[Chorus]
F#m                           A 
I've got enough fight left inside this tired heart
   D                C#m            Bm 
To win this one and walk out on my feet,
       E
No retreat.

[Verse]
A            E   D            G
I may never get, everything I bet
Am7       Am/F           A
But I'm a man who always copes
A           E   D            G
I'm hurting bad and fighting mad
Am7             Am/F               A
I'm not knocked out, but I'm on the ropes.

[Chorus]
F#m                    A 
Everything that I hold near and dear to me
D                   C#m           Bm 
Is riding on this moment here and now,
       E
I know how.

[Instrumental]
A E D G Am7 Am/F A x2

[Chorus]
F#m                           A 
I've got enough fight left inside this tired heart
   D                C#m            Bm 
To win this one and walk out on my feet,
       E
No retreat.

[Verse]
A             E     D               G
Gonna feel so good, when it's understood
Am7             Am/F       A
But hold the rebirth of my hopes
A              E    D                G
In the ring so long gotta prove them wrong
Am7             Am/F                    A
I'm not knocked out, but I'm not on the ropes.
