[Verse]
 F#m    E    A         F#m    E    A 
Well I won't back down, no I won't back down 
         F#m     E          D 
You can stand me up at the gates of hell 
      F#m    E    A 
But I won't back down
[Verse]
       F#m  E   A                F#m   E   A 
Gonna stand my ground, won't be turned around 
         F#m        E           D 
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down 
       F#m  E   A           F#m    E    A 
Gonna stand my ground and I won't back down
[Chorus]
 D   E   D                         E 
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out 
 D   E       F#m  E    A          F#m    E    A 
Hey, I will stand my ground and I won't back down
[Verse]
       F#m    E     A     F#m    E     A 
Well I know what's right I got just one life 
      F#m         E        D 
In a world that keeps on pushin' me around 
          F#m  E    A          F#m   E    A 
But I'll stand my ground and I won't back down
[Chorus]
 D    E     D                      E 
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out 
 D   E      F#m    E  A           F#m   E    A 
Hey, I will stand my ground and I won't back down 
      F#m    E    A End On A	   
And I won't back down 
 
No I won't back down
