[Verse 1]
        E                       D         A
When you carry the cross, do you know it's true
        E                     D       A
Your direction is lost, who do you run to
        E                  D       A
In your wild race, when you win you loose
Bm7                      A
It's hard to shelter your baby blues

[Verse 2]
         E                       D      A
When it's said and done, you come out on top
       E                  D       A
Neither hit and run, where does it stop
       E              D       A
In your wild race, you come to find
Bm7                     A
The time has come now to draw the line

[Chorus]
                      E      Bm7
You know you've got to stand, stand
D        A           E
Stand for what you believe
                      E      Bm7
You know you've got to stand, stand
D        A           E
Stand for what you believe
  D      A
Oh stand, stand for what you believe

[Verse 3]
  E                    D       A
Express yourself in the face of change
  E                         D         A
Repress yourself, you surely seal your fate
          E                       D       A
You got to look inside, the answer lies in wait
Bm7             A
Resurrect before it's too late

[Chorus]
                      E      Bm7
You know you've got to stand, stand
D        A           E
Stand for what you believe
                      E      Bm7
You know you've got to stand, stand
D        A           E
Stand for what you believe, oh

[Chorus]
E                 Bm7
Everybody come on, everybody come on
D        A           E
Stand for what you believe
                      E      Bm7
You know you've got to stand, stand
D        A           E
Stand for what you believe
  D      A
Oh stand, stand for what you believe
