C F Dm G
Years ago, my heart was set to live, oh
Em Am Dm Ab
And I've been trying hard against unbelievable odds
C F Dm G
It gets so hard in times like now to hold on
Em Am Dm Ab
But guns they wait to be stuck by, at my side is God
[Chorus 1]
C G/B Am Em F G C
And there ain't no one goin' to turn me 'round
C G/B Am Em F G C
Ain't no one goin' to turn me 'round

C F Dm G
There's people around who tell you that they know
Em Am Dm Ab
And places where they send you and it's easy to go

They'll zip you up and dress you down and stand you in a row
Em Am Dm Ab
But you know you don't have to, you can just say, "No"
[Chorus 2]

And there ain't no one goin' to turn me 'round

Ain't no one goin' to turn me 'round

I've been built up and trusted,
Dm F
Broke down and busted

But they'll get theirs and we'll get ours if we can
C Am
Just hold on,
