F5 F5 F5 F5
(VERSE)
F5
I feel a chill in the air today
C5
And though we never started out that way
Bb5
We've got to ask ourselves
F5
Is this the land that our fathers made?
F5
That silver spoon is going to fade and rust
C5
Got no respect and we've lost our trust
Bb5 F5
And Texas, what's become of your favorite sons?
(CHORUS)
Bb5 F5
Why are your friends all acting strange?
Bb5
This ain't no time for a foolish heart
C5
It's time we've got to act our age
F5
You'll never break me down
(INTERLUDE)
F5 F5 F5
(VERSE)
F5
Better believe we've got our eyes on you
C5
And we know the crooked things you do
Bb5
You'd better wake up now
F5
And answer for the things you've done
F5
All of the lies that you propagate
C5
You've raped the charm from the lone star state
Bb5
And there's a cancer deep
F5
Inside a Texas heart tonight
(CHORUS)
Bb5 F5
Why are your friends all acting strange?
Bb5
This ain't no time for a foolish heart
C5
It's time we've got to act our age
F5
You'll never break me down
(OUTRO)
F5
You'll never break me down
F5
You'll never break me down
F5
You'll never break me down
F5
You'll never break me down
F5
You'll never break me down
F5
You'll never break me down
F5
You'll never break me down
