DON'T GIVE UP
Peter Gabriel
(capo on third fret!)
| Am |
In | this proud land we grew up strong

We were | wanted all along

I was | taught to fight, taught to win

| Am |
I never | thought I could fail

| No fight left or so it seems
|

I am a man whose | dreams have all deserted

| G |
I've changed my | face, I've changed my name
|

But no one | wants you when you lose

It is so | strange the way things turn

The place that I was | born, on the lakeside
|

As daylight | broke, I saw the earth
|
| Am |
The trees had | burned down to the ground
