Stay Strong
(A song for Chase and all of us who care about him)
by Uncle Mitch

(v1)
When I heard the news it blind-sided me
Could it really be cancer?
You're just eighteen
And seemed all right last week
I got mad at God for a while
Prayed Lord, protect your precious child
And till I get there, give him this message from me
Chase, please.....

(chorus)
Stay strong inside
Face ev'ry turn one step at a time
Dig deep...believe
Carolina blue skies hold your dreams
It's two outs, two on...
Game's tied... it's Game on!!
Stay strong!

(v2)
Your mama told me that they'd started up a blog
So that people like me
Could keep up with
Everything that 's going on
Two thousand hits in just six days
All the comments read about the same
Seems in their own words ev'ryone just wants to say
Hey, Chase.....

(chorus)
Stay strong inside
Face ev'ry turn one step at a time
Dig deep...believe
Carolina blue skies hold your dreams
It's two outs, two on...
Game's tied... it's Game on!!
Stay strong!

(bridge)
On days when the race just seems too long
Know that we're here cheering you on

(chorus)
Stay strong inside
Face ev'ry turn one step at a time
Dig deep...believe
Carolina blue skies hold your dreams
So, race..press on
Yeah, Chase..
Chase, stay strong
Stay strong...

Ev'ryone, ev'ryone.. ev'ryone
Stay strong
Stay strong........
