....................................OoOo yeah yeah oOo
I gave you my heart.................I gave you my soul
I gave everything that I had........but you left me in the cold
but still I have faith..............somehow I believe
that if I keep love in my heart.....it will find its way to me
-5
I could fight.......................seek revenge
-5 [G7-9]
But thats not who I am..............No I'm not giving in......I will rise above
Chorus
I'm gonna keep walking though it may seem far
I'm gonna keep preaching when life gets too hard
Not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
I'm gonna keep climbing 'till I see the top
I'm gonna keep trying though I may get lost
Not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the hi - gh road
I'm gonna get by on the high road (X2)
This pain that I feel.................I will overcome
I know somewhere deep down inside.....its the pain that makes us strong

I could curse.........................I could shout

take the easy way out..........I forgive you somehow....I will rise above
oOoOo
Chorus
I'm gonna keep walking though it may seem far

not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
