[Intro]
Dm(3 Measures) F (1 Measure)
 
[Verse 1]
Dm                                       F
We were the kids that Left home probably too young
Dm                              F
But we took our share and maybe then some
Dm                                      F
Tired of beatings and battles and being sewn up
                 Dm                         F
But that made us grow up, and that made 'em scared
 
[Pre-Chorus]
F                                          Gm
Cause we never learned to keep our voices down
                       Dm
No, we only learned to shout
                      Bb
So we fight our way in (we fight our way in)
 
And we fight our way out
F                                     Gm
And we earned what we could from the ground up
                                 Dm
And tried to lift the whole damn crowd up
                      Bb
So we fight our way in (we fight our way in)
 
And we fight our way out
 
[Chorus]
F
We fight our way in (we fight our way in)
Gm
And we fight our way out (and we fight our way out)
Dm
We fight our way in (we fight our way in)
Bb
And we fight our way out (and we fight our way out)
 
[Verse 2]
Dm                                              F
And there's still a kid somewhere that needs to hear this
              Dm                   F
That somebody cares, that somebody knows
      Dm                                       F
Who's tired of bleeding and battered and being torn up
              Dm                    F
Just pick yourself up, it's time to go
 
[Pre-Chorus]
F                                         Gm
Cause we never learned to keep our voices down
                       Dm
No, we only learned to shout
                      Bb
So we fight our way in (we fight our way in)
 
And we fight our way out
F                                    Gm
And we earned what we could from the ground up
                                 Dm
And tried to lift the whole damn crowd up
                      Bb
So we fight our way in (we fight our way in)
 
And we fight our way out
 
[Chorus]
F
We fight our way in (we fight our way in)
Gm
And we fight our way out (and we fight our way out)
Dm
We fight our way in (we fight our way in)
Bb
And we fight our way out (and we fight our way out)
 
[Bridge]
Bb                                C
Maybe we found a way to make some tracks
                               Dm
We didn't snicker and turn our backs
                             Bb
We just keep digging in, and digging in, and giving back
