Longshot

Tune down 1/2 step 


Intro 
C#m    A    E     
C#m    A    E     


 
     C#m 
Everybody says south 
C#m 
But you go north 
     A 
Everybody says stop 
A 
But you keep pushing forward 
        E 
There's something in your soul 
                      
That makes you live this way 
       C#m 
You're too hardheaded 
C#m 
To know when to stop 
              A 
You should be down for the count 
A 
But you're not 
                   E 
You ain't heard no bell 
                    
You ain't heard no fat lady sing 

You know what I mean 
 

 
                  A 
'Cause you're the longshot 
    E 
The underdog 

Give it all you can 
         C#m      
You only get one chance 
           A 
You're the longshot 
E 
Blood, sweat, and tears 
         
4th and 10 
                     C#m    
Need to throw a Hail Mary again 
           A 
You're the longshot 
E 
Take it on the chin 
        
At the back of the pack 
        C#m         
But you just might win 
           A    E 
You're the longshot 
     
Yes you are 
    C#m          A    E     
You're a winner 
 

 
             C#m 
Oh, they can break your back 
C#m 
But they can't break your spirit 
        A 
They do everything to stop you 
A 
But you stick right with it 
         E 
You keep carrying on 
                           
'Cause you gotta look yourself in the eyes 
         C#m 
You keep telling yourself 
C#m 
You'll be somebody they'll know 
     A 
When they try to steer you down 
A 
You tell 'em where to go 
E 
They don't like the sound of those words 
         
Rollin' off your tongue 

'Cause you ain't done 
 

 
                  A 
'Cause you're the longshot 
    E 
The underdog 

Give it all you can 
         C#m      
You only get one chance 
           A 
You're the longshot

Blood, sweat, and tears
