Chorus
B  A x3
G  A

when you feel the world has failed you yet again
and staying motivated is just to hard to try 
when youre at rock bottom, digging in the dirt
you must hold on  
for a little while

when you find bad news awaits around each corner
and opportunity aint knocking on your door
at the worst of times, the moments where it hurts
keep holdin on  
a little more

prechorus
and they say... that nothing worth it comes that easy
but suffering it hurts i know
and there are days it gets so hard
that the pain, it strikes your soul

when you feel all your accomplishments are meaningless
and when youre stripped away of all your strength and pride
when youve fallen down and life keeps taking shots you must hold on
you still have time

and in those instances where happiness goes sour
although that bitter taste will linger for some time 
it is up to you to dust off all your demons and hold on
youll be alright

prechorus
and i know the wounds of failure cut so deeply
because weve all been there before
but dont lose sight of all those reasons to hold on
and fight some more, some more

bridge (do-do-dodo-do)

main (quieter)
when youve tried and failed a thousand times and over
and then you try and fail a thousand times once more
when youve tried and failed till all your hope is lost you must hold on
and try some more

'cause on that day that you triumph over your demons
and through the shadows, you finally see the light
at that moment when, you realize its worth it to hold on
youll be alright, youll be all right

(do-do-dodo-do)
