No Surrender -- Bruce Springsteen
Key: F
Intro:
| F | C | Bb | Bb | F | C | Bb | Bb |
Verse:
WelFl, we busteCd out of class, had to get away from the fools
We leBbarned more from a F3 minute reCcord, baby, than we ever learned in school
ToniFght I hear that neighbourhood drummer sound
I can Cfeel my heart begin to pound
You say yBbou're tired and you just want to close your eyes
And Ffollow your Cdreams down
Chorus:
WelFl, Cwe made aBb promise,F swore we'd always remember
No reBbtreat, bCabyF, no surrender
Like FsoldiersC on a wiBbnter'sF night with a vow to defend
No reBbtreat, bCabyF, no surrender
Verse 2:
Well now young faces grow sad and old and hearts of fire grow cold
We swore blood brothers against the wind, I'm ready to grow young again
And hear your sister's voice calling us home across the open yard
Maybe we'll find someplace of our own with these drums and these guitars
Chorus:
Well, we made a promise, swore we'd always remember,
No retreat, baby, no surrender
Blood brothers on a stormy night with a vow to remember
No retreat, baby, no surrender.
Bridge:
F Lay laCy lay lay lay lay, lay lay lay lay lay lay
F Lay laCy layBb lay lay lay, lay lay lay lay lay lay
F Lay laCy lay lay lay lay, lay lay lay lay lay lay
F Lay laBby lay Clay lay lay, lay lay lay lay lay lay
Verse 3:
Well on the streets tonight, the light's growing dim
The walls of my room are closing in
There's a war outside still raging, you say it ain't ours anymore to win,
I want to sleep beneath the peaceful skies in my lover's bed
With that wild open country in our eyes and those romantic dreams in my head
Chorus:
Well we made a promise, swore we'd always remember,
No retreat, baby, no surrender
Blood brothers on a stormy night with a vow to remember
No retreat, baby, no surrender.
