 7 -5*7  -6* 7*  -5*  -5*
Peo-ple keep on learn-in'  
 7   -5*   -6* 7* -5* -5*
Sol-diers keep on war-rin' 
  7    7   7* -5* -5*
World keep on turn-in'  
  5* -5* -7*7* -5* 5*  -5*

(CHORUS) 
-5* 7*  7*   7* -6* -5* 5* -6  5*-3* 3
I'm so darn glad he let me try it a-gain 
  -3*  5   7*   7* -6*   7*
'Cause my last time on earth  
7  -5*  5* -5*    5* -3* -3*
I lived a whole world of sin 
-3* 7*  7*  -6*  7* 7-5* 5*   -5* 5* -3* -3*
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then 
-3*-3*  -6  -6  5 -3*
Gon-na keep on try-in' 
 7*  7*  7*  -6* -5*   5*  -5*
Till I reach the high-est ground 


Teachers keep on teachin' 
Preachers keep on preachin' 
World keep on turnin' 
Cause it won't be too long 
Oh no 

Lovers keep on lovin' 
Believers keep on believin' 
Sleepers just stop sleepin' 
Cause it won't be too long 
Oh no 

(CHORUS) 
       7*  7*  7*  -6* -5* -5   -5* 
Whew! Till I reach my high-est ground 
7*   7*   7* 7*-6*-5* -5 -5*
No one's gon-na bring me down 

Oh no
