intro: A,E,D
A E F#m C#m
They can say anything they want to say
D
Try to bring me down
A
But I will not allow
Bm
Anyone to succeed
E
Hanging clouds over me
A E F#m
And they can try hard to make me feel
C#m D
That I don't matter at all
A
But I refuse to falter
Bm
In what I believe
E
Or lose faith in my dreams
CHORUS:
A C#
'Cause there's a light in me
F#m D
That shines brightly
Bm
They can try
E A
But they can't take that away from me
