lyrics
you may push me around, but you cannot win
you may throw me down, but i'll rise again
the more you say, the more i defy you
so get out of my face
you cannot stop us, you cannot bring us down
never give up, we go on and on
you'll never break us, never bring us down
we are alive!
all my will, all my strength
rip it out, start again
the wind blows, i'll lean into the wind
my angle grows, i'll use it to win
the more you say, the more i defy you
so get out of my way
can you leave it all behind?
can you leave it all behind?
cause you can't go back
you can't go back
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official OFFSPRING tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
