Keep Swingin by Good Charlotte feat. Kellin Quinn
Keep Swingin
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
A#5 D#5 D5
[Verse 1]
A#5
I had nothing to say
D#5 D5
And I could never fake it
A#5
So I just stood by
D#5 D5
And I watched all them take it
A#5
If we lose our way
D#5 D5
We will learn how to shake it
A#5
All that shit that fucks you up
G5 F5 D#5 D5 C5
We learn to laugh it off and just walk away
[Chorus]
A#5 D#5 C5
'Cause you know they ain't got no soul now
G#5 A#5
Even when they said we sold out
A#5 D#5 C5
We keep swingin' and we all just go down
G#5 A#5
Sayin' and playin' what we think
A#5 D#5 C5
'Cause you know they ain't got no soul now
G#5 A#5
Even when they said we sold out
A#5 D#5 C5
We keep swingin' and we all just go down
G#5 A#5
Sayin' and playin' what we think
[Verse 2]
N.C.
You and I will work it out somehow
N.C.
Come on, come on
A#5
See the look on your face
D#5 D5
Yeah, I know what you're thinkin'
A#5
So should I even waste my time?
D#5 D5
Stop the words before they sink in
A#5
You know you're all the same
D#5 D5
And you're never gonna change
A#5
Well, artists sell their soul
G5 F5 D#5 D5 C5
For dollar bills and empty spaces
[Chorus]
A#5 D#5 C5
'Cause you know they ain't got no soul now
G#5 A#5
Even when they said we sold out
A#5 D#5 C5
We keep swingin' and we all just go down
G#5 A#5
Sayin' and playin' what we think
A#5 D#5 C5
'Cause you know they ain't got no soul now
G#5 A#5
Even when they said we sold out
A#5 D#5 C5
We keep swingin' and we all just go down
G#5 A#5
Sayin' and playin' what we think
[Bridge]
D#5
I'm not gonna spend today
A#sus4 Cm7
Thinkin' about whatever happened yesterday
G#sus2 D#5
No, I don't wanna ever let it slip away
A#sus4
'Cause we've been gone awhile
Cm7
But now we're here to stay
G#sus2
We're here to stay
[Chorus]
A#5 D#5 C5
'Cause you know they ain't got no soul now
G#5 A#5
Even when they said we sold out
A#5 D#5 C5
We keep swingin' and we all just go down
G#5 A#5
Sayin' and playin' what we think
A#5 D#5 C5
'Cause you know they ain't got no soul now
G#5 A#5
Even when they said we sold out
A#5 D#5 C5
We keep swingin' and we all just go down
G#5 A#5
Sayin' and playin' what we think
[Outro]
A#5 D#5 C5
You and I will work it out somehow
G#5 A#5
Come on, come on
A#5 D#5 C5
You and I will work it out somehow
G#5 A#5
Come on, come on

'Cause you know they ain't got no soul now
Even when they said we sold out
We keep swingin' and we all just go down
Saying and playing what we think
'Cause you know they ain't got no soul now
Even when they said we sold out

Thinking about whatever happened yesterday
No I don't wanna ever let it slip away
'Cause we've been gone a while but now we're here to stay
We're here to stay

We keep swingin' and we all just go down
Saying and playing what we think

You and I will work it out somehow
Come on, come on
You and I will work it out somehow
Come on, come on
