Tom: Em
Em C G
Money's been a wise buck this year
D C Em
Now there's things in life that you've always feared
Em C G
There ain't a use to pouting around
D C G
Singing 'woe is me' until you're six feet down
Em C G
Always following the same old tracks
D C Em
Time to break off and cut a new path
Em C G
Don't put down these words I say
D C G
It takes blood and sweat to find a new way
[Chorus]
C
You're coming on strong
G
I know your night's been long
Em D C
But I can see you coming around the bend
Em C D
And kicking until the end
G D
Like Prefontaine from an outside lane
C
Proving them wrong
G
Coming on strong
[Verse 2]
Em C G
Every miss is a payment made
D C Em
To a debt of dues that we all must pay
Em C G
Your empty coffers aren't a sign
D C G
That you haven't saved for a whole lifetime
Em C G
And you can go out swingin' to a cold dark grave
D C Em
They can never say that you didn't live brave
Em C G
Born to nothing but pain and strain
D C G
Leave with grit fixed to your name
[Chorus]
C
You're coming on strong
G
I know your night's been long
Em D C
But I can see you coming around the bend
Em D C
And kicking until the end
G D
Like Prefontaine from an outside lane
C
Proving them wrong
G
Coming on strong
Em Em
Em C G D
Em C G D C G D
[Chorus]
C
You're coming on strong
G
I know your night's been long
Em D C
But I can see you coming around the bend
Em D C
Oh and kicking until the end
G D
Like Prefontaine from an outside lane
C
Proving them wrong
G
Coming on strong
C
Proving them wrong
G
Coming on strong
Em Em
Em C G D
