On The Ropes(Chords)

	        
Intro 
A E D G Am7 Am7  A 

A            E    D                  G 
Every time I find myself in this old bind 
Am7          Am7         A 
Watching the death of my hopes. 
A              E    D                G 
In the ring so long gonna prove them wrong 
Am7             Am7                 A 
I'm not knocked out, but I'm on the ropes. 

Chorus 1 
F#m                           A  
I've got enough fight left inside this tired heart 
   D                C#m            Bm  
To win this one and walk out on my feet, 
       E 
No retreat. 

A            E   D            G 
I may never get, everything I bet 
Am7       Am7            A 
But I'm a man who always copes 
A           E   D            G 
I'm hurting bad and fighting mad 
Am7             Am7                A 
I'm not knocked out, but I'm on the ropes. 

Chorus 2 
F#m                    A  
Everything that I hold near and dear to me 
D                   C#m           Bm  
Is riding on this moment here and now, 
       E 
I know how. 

A E D G Am7 Am7  A x2 

Chorus 1  


A             E     D               G 
Gonna feel so good, when it's understood 
Am7             Am7        A 
But hold the rebirth of my hopes 
A              E    D                G 
In the ring so long gotta prove them wrong 
Am7             Am7                     A 
I'm not knocked out, but I'm not on the ropes.
