Up From Down Lyrics & Chords By Layne

I've shot so many holes in my feet
It's a wonder I can stand at all
But it gets so hard to smile and keep saying "Thank you"
When they take your pride and shove it up against the wall

I'm on the outside of a game I never learned to play
For this fight ya gotta stay in the ring
Was it for a blink or for a lifetime I turned away?
Like Jagger says it's just a kiss away

But I'm ready to rumble
Had my time to stumble
This time I won't fall
This time I can't fall
Up From Down
It's the only way out
Make everyday count
It's the only way out
Up From Down
Up From Down

Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
Even when I got down on my knees
I cried, "Surrender!"
And you came back with a punch
Well okay, now I know how it goes
Thank you very much

But I'm ready to rumble
Got no time to stumble
This time I won't fall
This time I can't fall
Up From Down
It's the only way out
Make everyday count
It's the only way out
Up From Down
Up From Down

Sometimes life feels so fragile
You can't try anymore
To pick it up off the floor

But I'm ready to rumble
Had my time to stumble
This time I won't fall
This time I can't fall
Up From Down
It's the only way out
Make everyday count
It's the only way out
Up From Down
Up From Down

(scat: dut'n dut'n dut dut dew…)
