Intro: A  D-A  E  A-D  A  D-A  E  
(x2)

A                  D              
I wake up just to work hard every 
 A  D-A  E  A-D
day
A                 D            A
Nothin' free and nothin' easy 
            E
ever comes my way
A                        D
Hands are calloused, my body is 
bruised
F#m                    D
I won't give up and I will not lose
D              A             D  
Just when you count me out, 
                    E
that's when I'll come through...I'm

      A                        
I'll still be standin' when the 
  E
favorite falls
        F#m               D
So they say I'm not that strong
        F#m               D
And the odds are way too long
           F#m            E     D
Well I was born to prove them 
              A   D-A  E  A-D  A
wrong, I'm the underdog
  D-A  E


-------------------- 



    A                       D     
My baby's the best lookin' thing 
             A  D-A  E  A-D
to hit this town
        A                 D       
She believes in me even though her
         A                   E
 folks don't want me comin 'round
A                 D
They got bigger plans for her than 
me
F#m                   D
I've got somethin' inside they can't
 see
D              A                 
But someday I swear they will, 
    D              E
cause I won't always be, ohh


CHORUS

        E                          
I know every verse and every word 
       D
of 1st Samuel 17
E                                 
I love it when that big ol' boy's 
  D                       A
brought down to his knees
        F#m                        
And it sometimes seems that all my 
        D                  A
dreams are over nine feet tall
             D                 A
And I'm the little man with a rock 
in his hand
E
Just like David in overalls... I'm


CHORUS


Oh, I'm the 
        A  D-A  E  A-D  A       
underdog.................don't 
   D-A       E
you count me out
