[Verse 1]
E F#m C#m
Hold your breath, don't look down, keep trying

Darling, it's okay to be scared, it's frightening

At times it just feels like the world is trying hard to knock us down

Let anything stop us now

E F#m
Get on my shoulders
C#m A
And I'll carry you all of the way

'Cause there's no life worth living in

And we've come out the other side with something beautiful

Only we know where we're going
C#m A
Every day we're gonna keep on growing
E F#m
Learning from the tears and the mistakes
C#m A
We're not perfect but we've come such a long way
E F#m
As long as I got you by my side
C#m A
I know what I wanna do in this life
E F#m
One day when our kids fall in love
C#m A
We can tell them that the odds were against us
[Chorus]
E F#m
I'm not a soldier

But I'll fight through our darkest of days

Get on my shoulders
C#m A
