J.R. Carroll - Don’t Lose Your Faith

Capo: 4th fret

[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]
C
It’s not a matter of your circumstance
G
It’s all about what your momma gave you
C
You got the smile
G
But did she give you all the tools you need to save you
C
When you’re down and out

And you’re sick of this town
Em
Cause’ all the boys know you’ve been around
C G
And not a one of ’em fills the holes your daddy left

C G
(x2)

C
Well you ran off and changed your name but
Em
Deep down, you’re still the same
C G
Broken girl who never makes up her mind
C
There ain’t a man around who deserves your crown
Em
But you keep on forcing yourself down
C G
Then you cry and wonder why it winds up bad

[Chorus]
C
Don’t lose your faith
G
Don’t lose your faith
C
Don’t lose your faith
G
Don’t lose your faith

[Verse 2]
C
Well your dreams are plagued
Em
With a place that you could stay and never leave it
C
Then every time a good man shows his face
G
You won’t believe it
C
Guess you’re jaded from the past

And you’re moving too fast
Em
And from everything you’ve seen

True love doesn’t last
C G
And if it does, we’ll darlin’, it ain’t for you

[Chorus]
C
Don’t lose your faith
G
Don’t lose your faith
C
Don’t lose your faith
G
Don’t lose your faith

[Bridge]
C G
Time and time again, you throw it away
C G
Just this once, won’t you let the right man stay
C G
Time and time again, you throw it aaaway
C G
Just this once, won’t let you the right man stay

C G
(x2)

[Outro]
C
It’s not a matter of your circumstance
G
It’s all about what your momma gave you
