[G]Warm yourself by the [Cadd9]fire son,

And the [Dsus4]morning will come [Cadd9]soon.

[G]I'll tell you stories of a [Cadd9]better time,

In a [Dsus4]place that we once [Cadd9]knew.

[G]Before we packed our bags and [Cadd9]left all this,

Be[Dsus4]hind us in the [Cadd9]dust,

[G] [Cadd9]

We had a place that we could call home,

And a [Dsus4]life no one could [Cadd9]touch.

CHORUS

Don't hold me [Em7]up now,

I can stand my [G]own ground

I don't need your [Dsus4]help now,

You won't let me[Cadd9] down, down, down,

Don't hold me [Em7]up now,

I can stand my [G]own ground

I don't need your [Dsus4]help now,

You won't let me[Cadd9] down, down, down, down...

***I�m not sure if that Cadd9 is played or if they remain on Dsus4. I prefer the Cadd9

that�s how I�m going to tab the other choruses, but it�s up to you.

[G]We are the angry and the [Cadd9]desperate,

The [Dsus4]hungry and the [Cadd9]cold.

[G]We are the ones who kept [Cadd9]quiet,

And always [Dsus4]did what we were [Cadd9]told.

[G]But we've been sweating while you [Cadd9]slept so calm,

In the [Dsus4]safety of your [Cadd9]home.

[G]We've been pulling out the [Cadd9]nails that hold up,

[Dsus4]Everything you've [Cadd9]known.

CHORUS

Don't hold me [Em7]up now,

I can stand my [G]own ground

I don't need your [Dsus4]help now,

You won't let me [Cadd9]down, down, down,

Don't hold me [Em7]up now,

I can stand my [G]own ground

I don't need your [Dsus4]help now,

You won't let me [Cadd9]down, down, down...[Am]

BRIDGE I

So open your [G]eyes child, let�s be on our [Am]way,

Broken windows and [G]ashes are guiding the [Am]way.

Keep quiet no [G]longer, we'll sing through the [F]day,

O[Dsus4]f the lives that we've lost, and the lives we've reclaimed.

A|-------------------3----| Play whichever sounds better to you-.)
E|-------------------x------------------------------------------.)

CHORUS/OUTRO

Don't hold me [Em7]up now,

I can stand my [G]own ground

I don't need your [Dsus4]help now,

You won't let me [Cadd9]down, down, down,

Don't hold me [Em7]up now,

I can stand my [G]own ground

I don't need your [Dsus4]help now,

You won't let me [Cadd9]down, down, down,

Em7 G <--(Chords are broken up on every beat,

Don�t hold me up..... starting on Em7.)

Don�t hold me [Dsus4]up..... [Cadd9]No, no, no,

Em7 G <--(Resume normal, continuous strumming on

Don�t hold me up..... Em7.)

Don�t hold me [Dsus4]up.....

Don�t let me [Cadd9]down, down, down, down, [Em7]down.

#I�ll tell you right now, I�m not positive on that C#.  It looks right and sounds right,
#it might be just a bit off (I was listening to two guitars playing different parts so my
