The Contender

Tom : G
G C G C

[Verse]
G
I've been written off so many times before
C
I've forgotten what it feels like to succeed anymore
G
Always on the sidelines, waiting in the wings
C
When the curtain finally falls, I'm never on the screen

[Pre-Chorus]
G
And I've got the scars to prove I've been there
C
I've got the marks from when I tried
Em
I've covered miles and miles to get here
C
Only for you to cast me aside

[Chorus]
G Em C
But I'll still run, run like the wiiiiinnnnd
G Em C
And I'll still start, all over agaaaaaiiiin
G
I gave it all, cause I had to make it
Em C
I gave it all, cause I had to try
G
I sacrificed my close relations
Em C
For the chance to say I tried

[Verse]
G
I've never learned to win, I don't know what it means
C
I lost myself when we were young, I'm fighting just to feel
G
Always on the edge, I just want to make my name
C
I'd love to show the world what I gave up for the game
