Was it blown by the wind, In the still of the night? We're up against the wall Up against the wall There's something dying on the street When they knock you down You're gonna get back on your feet (No you can't stop now) Verse: I always saw you as a kind of keeper A mother to a child But your boys have grown soft And your girls have gone wild From the blue ridge to the black hills To the redwood sky The season may pass But the dream doesn't die Why did you drop the ball? Up against the wall There's something dying on the street When they knock you down You're gonna get back on your feet (No you can't stop now) When they break your heart When they cause your soul to mourn Remember what I said Boy you was battle born (No, you can't stop now) Solo: Eb|--12--15--12------12------12------12------12------12--------------| Bb|--------------15--------------15--------------15------15--12--15--| Gb|------------------------------------------------------------------| Db|------------------------------------------------------------------| Ab|------------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|------------------------------------------------------------------| You was battle born Eb|--12--15--12------12------12------12------12------12--------------| Bb|--------------15--------------15--------------15------15--12--15--| Gb|------------------------------------------------------------------| Db|------------------------------------------------------------------| Ab|------------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|------------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|--12--15--12------12------12------12------12------12--------------| Bb|--------------15--------------15--------------15------15--12--15--| Gb|------------------------------------------------------------------| Db|------------------------------------------------------------------| Ab|------------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|------------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|--12--15--12------12------12------12------12------------------| Bb|--------------15--------------15------15------15--12----------| Gb|------------------------------------------------------14--12--| Db|--------------------------------------------------------------| Ab|--------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|--------------------------------------------------------------| (2nd guitar) Eb|----------------| Bb|--12-----12-----| Gb|--14b16--14b16--| Db|----------------| Ab|----------------| Eb|----------------| When the night falls on the land Eb|--12--15--12------12------12------12------12------12--------------| Bb|--------------15--------------15--------------15------15--12--15--| Gb|------------------------------------------------------------------| Db|------------------------------------------------------------------| Ab|------------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|------------------------------------------------------------------| Are you haunted by the sound?
