   CI remember, wasn't so long ago 

We had a one room shack and the livin' was low 
        FAnd my mama by herself raised me and my bro 

Wasn't easy, but we did it with the little that go 
        C Worked hard while the suckers cool every day 

And kept her eyes on the stars when the skies were grey 
          FGave us pride to survive, really showed us the way 

Now I really understood what she was tryin' to say 
            CShe said, "Son there'll be times when the tides are high 

And the boat may be rocky, you can cry 
                FJust never give up  you can never give up," uh-uh 
         CIn this life you could lead if you only believe 

And in order to achieve what you need 
                   F  You can never give up 

You can never give up 


          C         C9              FAnd this hope that keeps me holding on on and on 
          C         C9             Fand this hope that makes me carry on  on and on 


 CBoom-boom , couldn't have made it alone 

I got a wonderful life, two kids on my own 
          FWith a strong foundation that was carved in stone 

And my mama for the love that made my house a home 
         CMade me wonder some time if this was meant to be 

All this for a humble little guy like me 
          FAnd all I ever really wanted was a family 

To teach my kids the same value that she gave to me 
           CShe said, Son there'll be times when the tides are high 

And the boat may be rocky, you can cry 
                FJust never give up 

You can never give up, uh-uh 
         CIn this life you could lead if you only believe 

And in order to achieve what you need 
                   FYou can never give up 

You can never give up 


          C         C9              FAnd this hope that keeps me holding on on and on 
          C         C9             Fand this hope that makes me carry on  on and on

 
    CWe nah turn no stepper, things a go better

Never let yourself be overcome by pressure
 FCool yah me bredda, have faith instead a

Sid-dung and a watch and all a fight one another
  CBlaze like fire, nah go retire 

God nah sleep and a him inspire
   F We hav a reach higher a that him require

Haffi mek we mark before the time expire 


          C         C9              FAnd this hope that keeps me holding on on and on 
          C         C9             Fand this hope that makes me carry on  on and on 
          C         C9              FAnd this hope that keeps me holding on on and on 
          C         C9             Fand this hope that makes me carry on  on and on
