G  D  Em  C

[VERSE 1]

G
You might say that I'm an old has been
D
You might say I'm just a never was
Em
I'm a little bit of both now and then
C
Never really stood to fight for much
G
But something happened when your eyes met mine
D
I became a different man
Em
Heard a whisper screaming deep inside
C
You better ask that girl to dance
             Em
So when the lights went down
     D
The band cranked up
     C
We stepped out on that floor
Em                D
Started out with one slow dance
C
I got something worth fighting for

[CHORUS]
                        G
Never been the kind to turn around
                     D
Shots fired I won't hit the ground
                              Em              D               C
When your back's against the wall you know exactly where I'll be
                        G
I'll be standing tall against the waves
                            D
Just like a lighthouse in a hurricane
         Em              D               C
I'd have everything to lose and nothing left to gain
         G
If I had you

[VERSE 2]

G
I drink my liquor from the bottom shelf
D
Smoke it if it burns
Em
Know I'm gunna have the devil to pay
C
When it comes my turn
G
But I wouldn't ever do you wrong
D
I got everything to prove
Em
Never wanted someone so strong
C
Until I saw you
            Em
So when the lights come on
     D
The band tears down
             C
I'll be the one to take you home
              Em
And when the night winds blow
         D             C
You're never gunna be alone.

[CHORUS]
                        G
Never been the kind to turn around
                     D
Shots fired I won't hit the ground
                              Em              D               C
When your back's against the wall you know exactly where I'll be
                        G
I'll be standing tall against the waves
                            D
Just like a lighthouse in a hurricane
         Em              D               C
I'd have everything to lose and nothing left to gain
         Em     D     C (x2)
If I had you

[CHORUS]
                        G
Never been the kind to turn around
                     D
Shots fired I won't hit the ground
                              Em              D               C
When your back's against the wall you know exactly where I'll be
                        G
I'll be standing tall against the waves
                            D
Just like a lighthouse in a hurricane
         Em              D               C
I'd have everything to lose and nothing left to gain
         Em              D               C
I'd have everything to lose and nothing left to gain
          G     D   Em   C (x2)
If I had you
