Hold Your Head High - Heartless Bastards
Played in bars, throughout the song Erika pulls-off and hammers-on the low E
string with her first finger
[F#] [B] [F#] [B] [F#]
[F#]I made a lot of choices [B]most have not been [F#]wise
[F#]But I have some really good friends I?v[B]e been fortunate to [F#]find
[F#]They get me through the lonely days[B] when I want to stay ins[F#]ide myself
[F#]They get me out of my shell [B]out into the w[F#]orld
[F#]I am [C#]coming back [B]I?m coming back [F#]again
[F#]I had [C#]lost everything and [B]then I got it back [F#]again
[F#]I dug my[C#]self so deep, [B]deep into a [F#]hole
[F#]That getting out was so [C#]far bey[B]ond my cont[F#]rol
[F#]In the past I?ve always had [B]trouble on my [F#]mind
[F#]I?m gonna take that feeling and l[B]eave it far be[F#]hind
[F#]As I go down this path [B]traveling through my [F#]fate
[F#]Lately I have begun [B]to aw[F#]ake
[F#]It started out in [C#]Jackson and we [B]moved across the l[F#]and
[F#]And all the deh[C#]ydration turned [B]soil into [F#]sand
[F#]And then [C#]one day they [B]hauled me a[F#]way
[F#]And I was out there, [B]out on my [F#]own
[F#]The [B]thieves they came and [F#]went
[F#]They took [B]everything in [F#]site
[F#]And then [B]we got it back [F#]again
[F#]Oh [B]I had to [F#]fight
[F#]And now then I [C#]woke up from t[B]he middle of the strang[F#]est dream
[F#]And everyone was there that [C#]I ever knew and they [B]all began to [F#]sing
[F#]Hold your head high just as [B]high as you [F#]can
[F#]Things will work out soon thing[B]s will come round a[F#]gain
[F#]You see I?ve got this fascination with all [B]the wrong ways to[F#] go
[F#]I get lost even in the [B]places that I [F#]know
[F#] [B] [F#] [B] [F#] [B] [F#] [B] [F#]
[F#]Hold your head high just as [B]high as you [F#]can
[F#]Things will work out soon thing[B]s will come round a[F#]gain ooh
[F#]Hold your head high just as [B]high as you [F#]can
[F#]Things will work out soon thing[B]s will come round a[F#]gain
