I Aint Goin Down

          C
I'm gonna hold on--
                 F         C 
'cause what I believe in is so 
   G
strong
           F    C
No matter how long, no one
                F              C  
Can tell me I'm wrong--I ain't 
G   C
goin' down



C

I had a baby at fifteen--
F
daddy never did forgive me
C                            G
I never heard from the guy again
C
I had to drop outta high school--
F
everybody treated me so cruel
C                          G     
But I didn't give in and give her
   C
 away

(Repeat Chorus)

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

                C
hopin' we'd get by
                           G
'Cause you can't live on love


           D
I worked night and day to keep us 
goin'
             G
Through the sweat and tears

without her knowin'
D                               
It was worth it just to watch her 
   A
grow
             D
Oh, oh, at least I was able to hold 
her
  G
Whenever she needed my shoulder
 D                   A      D
I'm so glad I never let her go


2nd Chorus:


D
I'm gonna hold on--
                 G    D      
'cause what I believe in is so 
    A
strong
           G    D
No matter how long, no one
                G              D  
Can tell me I'm wrong--I ain't 
A   D
goin' down


     Bm    A                  G
Her smile got me through the years--
                 D
dried away the tears
                    A
And filled me with hope
    Bm         A            G
At night I'd lie awake and cry--
 Bm                 D
prayed we would get by
                        A
And for the courage to cope

Oh, oh, oh


     Bm    A                  G
Her smile got me through the day--
                     D
and every night I'd pray
                    A
I could give her enough


Repeat 2nd Chorus (2x)

D                        G
No one can tell me I'm wrong
        D  A    D
I ain't goin' down
