fade out with figs 11 and 12
I see that smile,
I see that smile,
I see that smile on your face...
We hear you cry,
we hear you wail,
we see that smile on your face...
We see you laugh,
we see you dance,
we take that away every day...
We see you cry,
we turn your head,
then we slap your face...
Bow down,
bow down,
bow down with your life...
Head down,
head down,
head down, hide that smile...
Head high,
head high,
head high, you got to smile!
Head high,
head high,
head high, you got to smile!
We see you try,
we see you fail,
some things never change...
We hear you cry,
we hear you wail,
we steal that smile from your face...
Bow down,
bow down,
bow down with your life...
Head down,
head down,
head down, hide that smile...
Head high,
head high,
head high, you got to smile!
Head high,
head high,
head high, like a song you like!

That last C chord is strange cuz the bass goes lower but the guitar goes higher so it
not not sound accurate when playing along but it'z the bass which goes really low.
