about

A powerful, uplifting song inspired by Panama Canal Pilot Captain Gerard Petroni's fight to recover from a stroke, and his "NEVER QUIT" motto. Driving bass guitar lines and hard-hitting drum performance sets this song on a level of "anthem rock", dedicated to those of us who fight our battles and overcome our weaknesses every day in order to give everything we have, and Never Quit.
Stay Positive - Love on Another - NEVER QUIT!

lyrics

E Bm
We came into this world we live in, each with our own situation
Asus2 E
We didn’t have a say……..that’s the way it is.
E Bm
We honor those who came before us, they wrote the Song – left us the Chorus.
Asus2 E
Can we find our part and sing along.
G Bm F#m E G D A(E)
Singing loud and clear; drowning all your fear

(open chords)
F#m B E F#m C#m B
Live your life for those who gave you life. It’s not easy but it’s worth the fight.

CHORUS1
E D
Dig your feet into the sand, make a choice and take a stand
A E
Choose to make a change and NEVER QUIT.
E D
Lift your hopes up to the sky; no one can say you didn’t try
A E G D E
Give your all and swear you’ll NEVER QUIT; Give your all and swear you’ll NEVER QUIT.

V.2 Life’s not a beach it’s like the ocean, tossing, pulling, deep emotion
Glassy calm can mean tomorrow’s storm.
So will we cower down and hide, or will we firmly face the tide.
That’s the real decision on the waves.
G Bm F#m E G D A(B)
The sun will always rise. But it may not shine.


Chorus2 :
Dig your feet into the sand, make a choice and take a stand
Choose to make a change and NEVER QUIT.
Lift your hopes up to the sky; no one can say you didn’t try
Give your all and swear you’ll NEVER QUIT.

JAM A E E, A E A E E, A E , D A A, D A E (2X)

F#m C#m B F#m C#m B
Prechorus Live your life for those who gave you life. It’s not easy but it’s worth the fight.

Chorus3:
Dig your feet into the sand, make a choice and take a stand
Choose to make a change and NEVER QUIT.
Lift your hopes up to the sky; no one can say you didn’t try
Give your all and swear you’ll NEVER QUIT.
NEVER QUIT, NEVER! NEVER QUIT, NEVER! NEVER QUIT, NEVER, NO!
(Repeat, then sing chorus underneath)
