[Verse 1] (Palm Muted and he picks the notes like in the intro)
E5 F5 G5
We were the kids that left home probably too young
E5 F5 G5
But we took our share and maybe then some
E5 F5 G5
Tired of beatings and battles and being sewn up
E5 F5 G5 (Pluck x5xxxx not PM)
But that made us grow up, and that made 'em scared
[Pre-Chorus] (He lightly strums the chords)
G5 A5
Cause we never learned to keep our voices down
E5
No, we only learned to shout
B5 ("Pause" for backing track)
So we fight our way in
And we fight our way out
G5 A5
And we earned what we could from the ground up
E5
And tried to lift the whole damn crowd up
B5
So we fight our way in
(Starts to strum harder, get hyped)
And we fight our way out
[Chorus] (Strum hard 1st time and lighter afterward, realitively though, still strum like you mean it)
D
We fight our way in
D/A
And we fight our way out
G/B
We fight our way in
G (stop struming and pluck x7xxxx no PM)
And we fight our way out
[Verse 2] (Pluck PMed and calmed down)
E5 F5 G5
And there's still a kid somewhere that needs to hear this
F5 E5 F5 G5 (pause to pluck x5xxxx not PM)
That somebody cares, that somebody knows
E5 F5 G5
Who's tired of bleeding and battered and being torn up
E5 F5 G5
Just pick yourself up, it's time to go
[Pre-Chorus] (lightly strum chords)
G5 A5
Cause we never learned to keep our voices down
E5
No, we only learned to shout
B5
So we fight our way in
And we fight our way out

And we earned what we could from the ground up
E5
And tried to lift the whole damn crowd up

So we fight our way in
And we fight our way out
[Chorus] (Hard 1st strum and lighter strums after)
D
We fight our way in
D/A
And we fight our way out
G/B
We fight our way in
G (Dpesnt pluck a note but goes right to the bridge)
And we fight our way out
[Bridge]
G G* D/A
Maybe we found a way to make some tracks
G/B
We didn't snicker and turn our backs
D* (Stop struming)
We just keep digging in, and digging in, and giving back
[Solo]
