Dbadd9


[Verse 1]
Bbsus4                                               Dbadd9
 And I have worked the field, felt the sweat on my brow
Bbsus4                                             Dbadd9
 I’ve labored in these ways, kept my hand to the plough
           Gb                              Bbm
And though others fall down right beside me
        Gb                               Bbm Gb
I will keep my head held high and rightly


[Chorus]
    Db             Bbm        Gb              Db Bbm Gb
So fight on brother for the things you never had
     Db                Bbm        Gb          Db Bbm Gb
And keep defying the things that held you down


[Verse 2]
Bbm                                  Db
 I have wrote the pages of an empty heart
Bbm                                                 Db
 And I’ve prayed every prayer to the good Lord up above
            Gb                            Bbm
Cause the whole inside my keeps on calling
        Gb                               Bbm Gb
And the absence of your voice is haunting


[Chorus]
    Db             Bbm        Gb              Db Bbm Gb
So fight on brother for the things you never had
     Db                Bbm        Gb          Db Bbm Gb
And keep defying the things that held you down


[Bridge]
Ebm                Fm     Gb
 Oh the blessing’s on it’s way
Ebm               Fm      Gb
 Just around the riverbend
Ebm                Fm     Gb
 Oh the blessing’s on it’s way
Ab                         Bbm Ab
 Just around the riverbend


[Chorus 2]
    Gb             Ab                          Bbm Ab
So fight on brother for the things you never had
     Gb                Ab                    Bbm      Ab       Gb
And keep defying the things that held you down, that held you down


[Chorus]
    Dbadd9         Bbsus4     Gb              Dbadd9 Bbsus4 Gb
So fight on brother for the things you never had,   oh-    oho
 Dbadd9            Bbsus4     Gb          Dbadd9             Bbsus4  Gb Dbadd9
Keep defying the things that held you down, that held you down,    oh-  oho


[Post-Chorus]
Bbsus4   Gb          Dbadd9
   That held you down
Bbsus4   Gb          Dbadd9
   That held you down
Bbsus4 Gb Dbadd9
Oh-    oh-oh
Bbsus4 Gb Dbadd9
