Hold Your Head High - Heartless Bastards
***Played in bars, throughout the song Erika pulls-off and hammers-on the low E
string with her first finger***
F# B F# B F#
F# B F#
I made a lot of choices most have not been wise
F# B F#
But I have some really good friends I’ve been fortunate to find
F# B F#
They get me through the lonely days when I want to stay inside myself
F# B F#
They get me out of my shell out into the world
F# C# B F#
I am coming back I’m coming back again
F# C# B F#
I had lost everything and then I got it back again
F# C# B F#
I dug myself so deep, deep into a hole
F# C# B F#
That getting out was so far beyond my control
F# B F#
In the past I’ve always had trouble on my mind
F# B F#
I’m gonna take that feeling and leave it far behind
F# B F#
As I go down this path traveling through my fate
F# B F#
Lately I have begun to awake
F# C# B F#
It started out in Jackson and we moved across the land
F# C# B F#
And all the dehydration turned soil into sand
F# C# B F#
And then one day they hauled me away
F# B F#
And I was out there, out on my own
F# B F#
The thieves they came and went
F# B F#
They took everything in site
F# B F#
And then we got it back again
F# B F#
Oh I had to fight
F# C# B F#
And now then I woke up from the middle of the strangest dream
F# C# B F#
And everyone was there that I ever knew and they all began to sing
F# B F#
Hold your head high just as high as you can
F# B F#
Things will work out soon things will come round again
F# B F#
You see I’ve got this fascination with all the wrong ways to go
F# B F#
I get lost even in the places that I know
F# B F# B F# B F# B F#
F# B F#
Hold your head high just as high as you can
F# B F#
Things will work out soon things will come round again ooh
F# B F#
Hold your head high just as high as you can
F# B F#
Things will work out soon things will come round again
F# B F# B F# B F# B F#
