[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
Em
Caught up in the maze,
Em
Far, far from this land,
Em
Still amazed,
Em
By what the old man said.
[Chorus]
C D Em Em
If you keep up hope for your brothers,
C D Em Em
I will keep up hope for this land.
[Verse 2]
Em
Stuck on a vision quest,
Em
Next to the wise man’s deathbed,
Em
While he mumbled ‘till he stumbled,
Em
Over his last dying breath.
[Chorus]
C D Em Em
If you keep up hope for your brothers,
C D Em Em
I will keep up hope for this land.
[Verse 3]
Em
Now I’m at the scene,
Em
But I’m kept on a string,
Em
Or are you personally willing,
Em
To take a bullet for a king?
[Chorus]
C D Em Em
If you keep up hope for your brothers,
C D Em Em
I will keep up hope for this land.
[Verse 4]
Em
‘cause I got to admit,
Em
I wanna fight to change these laws,
Em
But I won’t be, no I won’t choose to be,
Em
A rebel without a cause,
[Chorus]
C D Em Em
If you keep up hope for your brothers,
C D Em Em
I will keep up hope for this land.
C D Em Em
You won’t keep up hope for your brothers,
C D Em Em
I won’t keep up hope for this land.
