Am                C              
This world is a thief, walkin’

the streets

dreams
                 C
Dressed up in disguise

Whispering lies so sweet
Am                C
I don’t wanna go one more day

Out of my hands, out of my grip

I’m about to be a champion

What the Good Lord gave

 the chin
Am                                
White-knuckled fists, strike again
       G
 and again
Am
