Not gonna let you bring me down       

              Ab7+    Gm7
I'll take the high    road

I'm gonna keep trying though I may get lost

I know somewhere deep down inside.....its the pain that makes us strong

        Ab7+                                  Dm7-/5               
I could curse.........................I could shout

         G7       Cm7  Eb/Bb        Ab7+         Dm7/5         G7/9
take the easy way out..........I forgive you somehow....I will rise above

Chorus:
I'm gonna keep walking though it may seem far
I'm gonna keep preaching when life gets too hard
not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road

I'm gonna keep climbing 'till I see the top
I'm gonna keep trying though I may get lost
not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road

to be real [to be real]...i can't keep it inside [though I cant keep it inside]

Gm7                             G7/9
I may hurt sometimes........But I will survive

I'm gonna keep reaching
I'm gonna keep climbing
[Say it with me now]
I'm gonna keep trying

I'm gonna keep walking though it may seem far
I'm gonna keep preaching when life gets too hard
not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road

I'm gonna get by on the high road
I'm gonna get down on the high road
I'm' gonna be fine on the high road

oOoOoO

I'm gonna get by on the high road
I'm gonna get by on the high road
I'm gonna be fine on the high road
