Verse 2:

Nothin' can hold us and nothin' can keep us down

And someday our names will be spread all over town

We can get in while the getting is good

So make it on your own, yeah, you know that you could

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

We got to make the break

'Cause we got too much at stake

[repeat chorus]

[repeat link]

guitar solo over verse chord progression [4X]

We made enough mistakes

But you know we got what it takes

[repeat chorus]

[repeat intro, part 1; end cold on Cm]

-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
