lyrics

I Don’t Give Up
Draft inspired by Amanda Rose Riley Extraordinary mini-musical

Verse 1
[C] I never get picked first
On recess teams or neighborhood pick-up games
[F] In sports I don’t mind getting dirty
[C] Sometimes I win sometimes I lose but I always feel the same

Chorus 1
But I [G] don’t give [F] up
[G] I keep on [F] working
[G] Harder than I [F] should doing my best to be more than [C] good

Verse 2
[C] In school I’m getting mostly A’s and some B’s
Not quite good enough for the honor society
[F] I do all the chores that my parents give to me
[C] Empty smelly garbage, washing dirty dishes, feeding and walking the puppy is my responsibility

Chorus 2
Cause I [G] don’t give [F] up
[G] I keep on [F] working
[G] Harder than any one I [F] know doing my best that I can [C] grow

Bridge
[A] I’ve got a [G] dream
[A] To be [C] extraordinary
[C] Some days its difficult
[A] I want to be [G] more
[A] Than my family [C] thought I could be
[G] I want this to be [F] more than just a [C] dream

Verse 3
[C] Guitar playing is a struggle
Learning a few chords and singing my heart out
[F] I keep a rhythmic strum while my fingers turn purple
[C] While I play my songs with passion leaving no doubt

Chorus 3
That I [G] don’t give [F] up
[G] I keep on [F] working
[G] Harder to [F] be a musician and fulfill my [C] vision

No I [G] don’t give [F] up
No I [G] don’t give [F] up
No I [G] don’t give [F] up
And I [G] won’t give [A] up
