Against the World

V6

[INTRO] [CLEAN ELECTRIC GUITAR] [WARM SYNTH CHORDS] Whoa-oh... Whoa-oh... [DRUMS BUILD] [VERSE 1] Danny works down at the service station Six days a week for a little pay Jenny waits tables off the highway Saving every dollar she can put away They got a room above a corner store The heat goes out when the winter comes But there's a picture of California Hanging where the paint has come undone [PRE-CHORUS] Everybody says they're dreaming Everybody says they'll learn But when you've got nothing handed to you You fight for everything you earn [CHORUS] IT'S US AGAINST THE WORLD! Baby, hold on tight US AGAINST THE WORLD! We're gonna make it out alive We don't need forever We just need tonight As long as you're beside me I know we'll be alright IT'S US AGAINST THE WORLD! Whoa-oh-oh! AGAINST THE WORLD! [GUITAR RIFF] [VERSE 2] Friday night the car stopped running Three miles out on Highway Nine Danny kicked the tire and started laughing Jenny said, "We're doing fine" They sat together on the hood Watching headlights passing by Talking 'bout a little house someday Somewhere underneath a western sky [PRE-CHORUS] Maybe everybody's right Maybe dreams don't pay the bills But you can't tell two hearts they're beaten When they're fighting for it still [CHORUS] IT'S US AGAINST THE WORLD! Baby, hold on tight US AGAINST THE WORLD! We're gonna make it out alive We don't need forever We just need tonight As long as you're beside me I know we'll be alright IT'S US AGAINST THE WORLD! Whoa-oh-oh! AGAINST THE WORLD! [INSTRUMENTAL] [MELODIC GUITAR SOLO] [KEYBOARDS BUILD] [BRIDGE] [HALF-TIME DRUMS] Maybe we won't get rich Maybe we won't get far Maybe this old Chevrolet Is all we'll ever call a car But I don't need a million I don't need my name in lights If I wake up tomorrow... AND YOU'RE STILL BY MY SIDE! [DRUM FILL] [KEY CHANGE] [FINAL CHORUS] IT'S US AGAINST THE WORLD! Baby, hold on tight US AGAINST THE WORLD! We're gonna make it out alive Let 'em say we're crazy Let 'em say we're wrong We've been fighting this together For way too damn long IT'S US AGAINST THE WORLD! [BACKGROUND VOCALS] Against the world! IT'S US AGAINST THE WORLD! [BACKGROUND VOCALS] Against the world! Whoa-oh-oh! We ain't giving up! Whoa-oh-oh! WE AIN'T GIVING UP! [FINAL GUITAR SOLO] [OUTRO] Us against the world... Baby, hold on tight... Whoa-oh-oh... AGAINST THE WORLD! [FINAL BAND HIT]
