Keep Your Head Up

 
              
Verse 1: 
C                Em7 
I spent my time, watching 
     G               G/F# 
The spaces that have grown between us. 
C                     Em7 
And I cut my mind on second best, 
       G           G/F# 
Oh the scars that come with the greenness. 
C                         Em7 
And I gave my eyes to the boredom, 
           G              G/F# 
Still the seabed wouldn't let me in. 
C                                Em7 
And I try my best to embrace the darkness 
G          C 
In which I swim. 
 
C                           Em7 
Now walking back, down this mountain, 
    G             G/F# 
The strength of a turnin' tide. 
C                           Em7 
Oh the wind so soft, and my skin, 
         G      G/F# 
Yeah the sun so hot upon my side. 
C                      Em7 
Oh lookin' out at this happiness 
   G           G/F# 
I searched for between the sheets, 
C                   Em7 
Oh feelin' blind, I realize, 
G     G/F#                 C 
All I was searchin' for... was me. 
   Em7    G         G/F          C 
Oh oh-oh, all I was searchin' for was me. 
D 
Oh yeah 
 
 
Em7                D               C 
keep your head up, keep your heart strong no, no, no, no, 
Em7                 D              C 
keep your mind set, keep your hair long Oh my, my darlin'. 
Em7                D               C 
keep your head up, keep your heart strong Na, oh, no, no. 
Em7                D               C 
keep your mind set in your ways.... Keep your heart strong. 
 
Verse 2: 
C                               Em7 
Now I saw a friend of mine, the other day, 
       G        G/F#            C 
And he told me that my eyes were gleamin'. 
C                               Em7 
Oh I said I'd been away, and he knew... 
       G        G/F#            C 
Oh he knew the depths I was meanin'. 
C                      Em7 
And it felt so good to see his face, 
       G        G/F#            C 
All the comfort invested in my soul, 
C                               Em7 
Oh to feel the warmth, of his smile, 
                    G       G/F#     C 
When he said, 'I'm happy to have you home.' 
   Em7         G       G/F      C 
Oh oh-oh, I'm happy to have you home. 
D 
Oh yeah 
 
 
Em7                D               C 
keep your head up, keep your heart strong no, no, no, no, 
Em7                 D              C 
keep your mind set, keep your hair long Oh my, my darlin'. 
Em7                D               C 
keep your head up, keep your heart strong Na, oh, no, no. 
Em7                D               C 
keep your mind set in your ways.... Keep your heart strong. 
 
Bridge: 
Em7                D               C 
'Cause I'll always remember you the same. 
Em7                D               C 
Oh eyes like wildflowers, oh with your demons of change. 
 
D                                C 
Ohhh May you find happiness here. 
D                                         C 
Ohhh May all your hopes all turn out right.
