Well I won't back down
No I won't back down
You can stand me up at the gates of hell
But I won't back down

/ Bm A D - / / Bm A G - / 1st / 

No, I'll stand my ground
Won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
Gonna stand my ground
And I won't back down

... / Bm A D GD / 

{Refrain}
  I won't back down
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
  I won't back down
Hey I will stand my ground
And I won't back down

/ G D A D G - A GD / G D A - Bm A D - / Bm A D - /

Well I know what's right, I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushin' me around
But I'll stand my ground and I won't back down

{Refrain thrice}

No, I won't back down
