Love this song, searched to find a tab and couldn't; so this is going to be my 
first attempt at a tab. If anyone wants to make corrections please feel free to 
do so. If you listen to the song and follow along it sounds ok. Enjoy!!!

Capo 1

E
Remember how you used to say
             B
You couldn't wait till tomorrow for a brand new day
E
And no fuss when ya had to ride the bus
         B
You just add a little blush 

To paralyze your school crush

E
Now you're older and the weight is on your shoulder
         B
Make the world a little colder 

No more hide'n in the old day
E
Be strong

Don't give up hope 
            B
It will get hard 

Life's like a jump rope

E
Up down 

Up down
B
Up down
        A
Up down yeah  
                  B    
Cause it will get hard

Remember life's like a jump rope
E
Up down 

Up down
B
Up down
        A
Up down yeah
            B
It will get hard

Cause it will get hard

E-B-E-B

E
There'll be a bump and there will be a bruise
B
There'll be alarms and there will be a snooze
E
There'll be a path that you will have to choose
B
There'll be a win and there will be a lose and
E
You have to hold your head up high 
B
and Watch all the negative go by
E
Don't you ever be ashamed to cry
       B
You go ahead

Cause life's like a jump rope

E
Up down

Up down yeah
            B
It will get hard

Come on

A                            B
I want to tell you that everything will be okay
          A                                    B
That everything will eventually turn itself to gold
A
So keep pushing through it all
      B
Don't follow, lead the way
               A                 B (HOLD)   
Don't lose yourself or your hope............

You stomp your feet so hard you make it pound

Raise the bottom to the top

And now we're never coming down

Clap hands to the rhythm

Raise the bottom to the top

And now we're never coming down
