G Em B D x2
(Verse)
G
So, this was not how you planned it.

No, oh you don't understand it.

Why, is it so misleading?

When all you really wanted became so defeating.
G
Time, well it only got harder
Em
Thought you had one but it was another.
Am
Then, you believed in a breakthrough
D D
But it took you by surprise when you came out a fool.
(Chorus)

You gotta fail a thousand times

Before you see it through.
G Em
You gotta spend your last dime
B D
Before you ever make a million.

You gotta know what brought you here
C D
And you gotta lose to persevere.

But it's the way the sun will rise

Through the darkest night.

Yeah it's always been worth the fight.
(Bridge)

Hope, it can make you courageous

when you look back and see all the lessons you've learned

You gotta fail a thousand times

Before you see it through.

You gotta spend your last dime
B D
Before you ever make a million.

You gotta know what brought you here

And you gotta lose to persevere.

But it's the way the sun will rise

Through the darkest night.

Yeah it's always been worth the fight.

You gotta fail a thousand times

Before you see it through.

You gotta spend your last dime

Before you ever make a million.

You gotta know what brought you here

And you gotta lose to persevere.

But it's the way the sun will rise
