No capo (for original key)
C Dm Am F
Oh -h –h –h , Oh – h-h-h, Oh – h-h-h
C Dm
Swing left, swing right
Am
Bruised and black-eyed
F
Half a life
C Dm Am F
Bleeding, choking but not broken inside
C
And in this world of compromise
Dm
I hit every curb, every red light
Am F
Trying to keep both hands on the wheel
C
But through it all I’m…
(Chorus)
C Dm
Still undefeated
Am F
With my back against the ropes
C Dm
Still undefeated
Am F
You can knock me down with forty blows
C Dm Am F
But you cannot break my hope
C Dm
Weak knees, can’t stand
Am
Raise up your hands
F
Don’t walk away
C
Been sucker punched but I’m not down
Dm
My feet have never left the ground
Am
It’s a fight that I can’t fix
F
Like a cut that needs a stitch
And somehow through it all I stay
(Chorus)
C Dm
Still undefeated
Am F
With my back against the ropes
Dm
Still undefeated
Am F
You can knock me down with forty blows
C Dm Am F
But you cannot break my hope
C Dm Am F
Cannot break my hope
C Dm Am F
Cannot break my hope
Am
We’re the ones who take the beating
F
Get back up and we’re still breathing
C G
We are the ones
Am
We’ll take a hit straight to the face
F
And never look the other way
C G
We are the ones
Am
We’ll take a hit straight to the face
F
And never look the other way
C G E
We are the ones
Am F
Still undefeated
C G
With our backs against the ropes
C Dm
We’ re still undefeated
Am
We’ll break these chains
F
to let them know
C Dm Am F
They cannot break our hope
C Dm Am F
They cannot break our hope
They cannot break our
Am F C
They can break us down but they cannot break our hope
