Lyrics
Gerry Plank?s
?Don?t let them push you around?
G7
There comes a time when
Patience is lost
There comes a time when
Reason is gone
C7
When common sense is not common at all
G7
and chaos has won
D7
and when that time comes
C7
you?ve got to be strong
D7
you should know that
C7
It won?t be long
D7
when all your friends say
C7
Don?t let them push you around
2.
There are sometimes when
You don?t understand
There are sometimes when
A man?s gotta be a man
Don?t send me away I?ve got something to say
I?m my own man
and when that time comes
C7
you?ve got to be strong
D7
you should know that
C7
It won?t be long
D7
when all your friends say
C7
Don?t let them push you around
C section
C7
Troubling matters grab the headlines
G7
What does it matter I?m losing my mind
C7
People lying all around me
D aug.
Can?t let them push me around.
3.
There comes a time when
ambition is low
There comes a time when
there's no get up and go
Fatigue sets in and it won?t go away
you?re tired today
and when that time comes
C7
you?ve got to be strong
D7
you should know that
C7
It won?t be long
D7
when all your friends say
C7
Don?t let them push you around
4.
There are sometimes when
all of us cry
There are sometimes when
each of us sigh
Problems surface each and every day
When you?re not feeling OK
and when that time comes
C7
you?ve got to be strong
D7
you should know that
C7
It won?t be long
D7
when all your friends say
C7
Don?t let them push you around
C section
My eyes are closed
but I can still see
all the matters that matter to me
jealous people try to take them away
can?t let them push me around
5.
G7
There comes a time when

D7

C7
you?ve got to be strong
D7
you should know girl
C7
It won?t be long
D7
when all your friends say
C7
Don?t let them push you around
