This tab does not have the intro riff, this is simply my interpretation of the song.
Intro: F - C - Bb - C - Dm - F - Gm - Gm - Bb
FC
Lost faith in the human spirit
DmBb
You walk around like a ghost
F
Your star spangled heart
GmC
Took a train for the coast
FC
When you shine you're a hill top mansion
DmBb
So how'd ya lose the light?
F
Was it blown by the wind?
GmC
In the still of the night
Bb
We're up against the wall
FC
Up against the wall
BbCDm
There's something dying on the street
F
When they knock you down
GmC
You're gonna get back on your feet
Bb
(But you can't stop now)
FC
I always saw you as a kind of keeper
DmBb
Mother to a child
F
But your boys have grown soft
GmC
And your girls have gone wild
FCDmBb
To the redwood sky
F
The season may pass
GmC
But the dream doesn't die
Bb
Why did you drop the ball?
FC
Up against the wall
BbCDm
There's something dying on the street
F
When they knock you down
GmC
You're gonna get back on your feet
Bb
(But you can't stop now)
FC
Did they break your heart
BbCDm
And did they cause your soul to mourn
F
Remember what I said
GmBb
Boy you was battle born
Bb
(But you can't stop now)
G-B-D-F
You was Battle Born
GmBb
When the night falls on the land
DmF
Are you haunted by the sound?
GmBb
It's gonna take more than a hand
Dm
To turn this thing around
Won't you lean it on me?
C
Rescue, set me free!
FC
Up against the wall
(Up against the wall)
BbCDm
There's something dying on the street
F
When they knock you down
Gm
You're gonna get back on your feet
Bb
(But you can't stop now)
FC
Did they break your heart
BbCDm
And did they cause your soul to mourn
F
Remember what I said
GmBb
Boy you was battle born
Bb
(But you can't stop now)
FC
Come on show your face
BbCDm
Come on give us one more spark
F
We'll sing a song of fire
Gm
Lost we fall into the dark
Bb
(No, you can't stop now)
F
You never know
C
If you never learn
Bb
You never shine
C
If you never burn
Dm
The rising tide
F
The undertow
Gm
The venom and
The overflow
Bb
You turn away
F
Welcome home.
