[Ab]Everybody [Fm]gather round and [Db]listen to my [Bbm]song,
I've only got one.[Ab]
We who are [Ab]young, should now take a [Cm]stand,
Don't run from the [Fm]burdens of women and [Eb11]men,
Continue to [Gb]give, conti[Db]nue to live
For what you [Bbm]know is right.[Eb]
Most of your [Ab]life can be out of [Cm]sight,
Withdraw from the [Fm]darkness and look to the [Eb11]light;
Where everyone's [Gb]free, 'least t[Db]hat's the way it's
Supposed to [Bbm]be.[Eb]
And we just [Db]keep on [Ab]keeping on[Abmaj7]
We just [Db]keep on keeping [Ab]on
Many [Gb]think that we have [Db]blown it
But they [Bbm7]too will soon admit
That there's [Bbm7]still a [Cm7]lot of [Eb13]love among us
And there's [Bbm7]still a [Cm7]lot of [Eb13]faith and warmth and trust.
When we [Db]keep on keeping [Ab]on.
Before we dis[Ab]miss, one thing I in[Cm]sist
When you have your [Fm]young, remember this [Eb11]song,
And our world su[Gb]rrounding, its leaps and and bounds,
[Db]Ups and downs, is reali[Bbm]ty[Eb]
Teach them to be [Ab]strong, and when they are [Cm]grown,
They can [Fm]proudly imply that we were an [Eb11]alright guy,
For [Gb]all the wrong now is right and this [Db]nations people united
[Bbm]As one.[Eb]
And we just [Db]keep on [Ab]keeping on[Abmaj7]
We just [Db]keep on keeping [Ab]on
Many [Gb]think that we have [Db]blown it
But they [Bbm7]too will soon admit
That there's [Bbm7]still a [Cm7]lot of [Eb13]love among us
And there's [Bbm7]still a [Cm7]lot of [Eb13]faith and warmth and trust
When we [Db]keep on keeping [Ab]on.
[Ab]We're gonna move on up y'all.
Keep on keeping on.
