Faulkner, Newton - I'm Not Giving Up Yet Lyrics
Take off all your clothes
I'll show you how we're made
One thing is for sure
That is we are not the same
Some of us destroy
While some of us would rather die
Then cause another person pain
That's why I'm not giving up yet
No, I'm not giving up yet
Because we're capable of so much more
Than the statistics on the news
If we don't wanna fight anymore
Well then it's up to us to choose
That's why I'm not giving up yet
No I'm not giving up yet
Hold on to any truth that you find
It's so hard these days to tell right from wrong and wrong from right
But I'm not giving up yet
No I'm not giving up just yet
No I'm not giving up yet
No I'm not giving up yet

Faulkner, Newton I'm Not Giving Up Yet Comments
some of this reminds me of glen hansard - the falsetto and the big, booming delivery, no holds barred vocals bellowed beautifully from the soul, the virtuosity I don't know anything aboput Faulkner but I wonder if he started as a busker
I want him and Ed to make beautiful music together. Legendary, unforgettably beautiful music. That is my one true wish lol
sat here at nearly half 5 in the morning bawling my eyes out because this man is just more than words could describe
Does anybody know where I can find a simplified version of this song to play? The only ones I can find are tabs, but I can't read them, and I can't play bar chords -.- I really love this song though and I want to cover it.
What chords is he playing?
He doesn't really do chords much. He plays this one tuned half a step down from DADGAD. I've no clue what chords to be honest sorry :(
What are you guys on about saying he's a replica of Ed sheeran? If anything Ed sheeran is a replica of Him. He was around waaaay before Ed was. Why cant you jusr appreciate both artists withoit comparison?
The tuning is C G C G G C.
Watch how he plays to learn it :)
Like this comment so everyone can see the tuning.
Open D :) not C
Amazing.
Ed Sheeran is Newtons love child :-P
It's definitely open C or open C#. Thinking open C, definitely sounds a lot more similar to this when I play it.
I think it's on open C but I'm not sure I'm trying to find out my self :)
gobsmacked. what a beautiful song....
what the guitar tuning newton plays in?
Can anyone link me to a tab for this? The ones i find are all really really crap :(
Newton is an amazing musician and this song is absolutely amazing, it never fails to make me cry! My boyfriend got me to listen to it and take in all of the lyrics when we were having a rough time and I am honestly so glad he did.
because people are jealous and envious. :/
Newton Faulkner is Ed Sheeran evolving into stage 2.
No. Just no.
απιστευτο...
Why is everyone saying my last name? Lol
3 dislikes? Clearly prejudice to gingers.
Im A little suspicious, is Ed sheeran evolved from newton? Lol x
@dercobo ahh thank you, is it a german radio or something?
spine shivers at 21 seconds
Awesome- Your folks should be proud.
@0hmyjesu5 Don't foget, ed sheern and rupert grint
the fuck is he saying at the start?
@HimHerMeBitch5 Ah man, chill out. The world is a place of love. But it's also a place of jokes and banter. I carry the ginger gene (A flaming ginger) and I always joke about having ginger children, no-one cares. You need to realise there's much more to life than letting these things get to you man!
all the comments about newton being 'the only ginger with a soul' yeah cos gingers havent got souls? thats pathetic and disgusting, get a soul yourself. anyway, this song always gives me chills. his voice, his music and he just gives me hope that things arent that bad.
3 people don't like ginger people, but didn't listen to his music...
@0hmyjesu5 never heard of ed sheeran and alex trimble?
@TheGreenFrog95 yes please!
Is he playing this song in standard tuning????
Nobody can compare this guy to ed sheeran, if you think ed sheeran is on the same level as Newton Faulkner or has 'soul' then your mistaken! This music is soul.. ed sheeran has no soul to his music, he is a pawn compared to this guy.. True talent right here!
@0hmyjesu5 Ed Sheeran mate
One of these days Mr. Faulkner, I'm going to interpret some of your songs as string quartet songs for my group to play. They're so inspirational, and have meant so much to me having gone through so much in the last several years. Most serious musicians put a lot of their heart into their music, but you... you put it all into your music. Such a beautiful human being.
love it :)
@0hmyjesu5 what about ed sheeran?
newton fucking falkner. take a bow..........
hes a ginger, cause he put his soul into his music
I'm not giving up yet...... <3
i LOVE this song! i love all his songs!
What a fab guy...my daughter and her friend both 15years have just won 2nd place in a competition singing this song...they are on youtube (Paige Seabridge & Jake mayhew) he plays guitar and she does vocals...it's a beautiful song and comes from the heart. It's one of their favourites and gives people goosebumps! She's got red hair too! What a lovely guy!!!!!
Mike Posner, with hair.
@TheGreenFrog95 proving the gingermyth wrong.
@0hmyjesu5 ed sheeran ;)
...insert hilarious comment about dislikes here...
2 people are deaf
@edwardgbell
It's take off all your clothes,
I'll show you how we're made,
One thing is for sure
That is, we are not the same...etc.
"Take off all your Toes??!"
:)
Underrated , Ginger , How will he carry on !
One of the best around , to think some genius roasted me for calling mat factor a jungle contestant in the waiting, if I could remember who i would send them to this
Thank fuck for real musicians
@0hmyjesu5
Whatever ...check out Brett Dennen
This song is soo true :)
I love it <3
xXxXx
The only thing is the guitar isn't fucking unplugged.
@SteveJames128 I dont know which model it is but im pretty convinced that the guitar is a Benjamin. Just google Benjamin guitars :)
@TheMusica999 it pretty much means acoustic and not altered
I hate cameramen that zoom faces 80% of a song! We want to see the guitar damnit! Very good song this is. Just learned to play it on guitar. The tuning he uses in this vid is CGCEGC. I can assure that its correct!
a dredlocked bob dylan
@Zeuerfeug D A D F# A D hope that helps:) it's a nice song to play and easy too :)
Great song and sound ! sounds similar to some songs from the Movie "Once" (i love this film).
Great work !

@TheGreenFrog95 yes it would help, it'd cure fucking cancer do it

youtube.com/watch?v=R2RFZ2nI7h4&sns=em
why doesnt itunes have his new album yet? im starting to get a little irritated by that. newton kicks ass, best guitar player in his genre by far. LOVE IT
@TheGreenFrog95 DO IT!
@TheGreenFrog95 just listen and watch where abouts his fingers are for a rough guide and figure it out man
tuning is low to high.. DADF#AD
anyone have tabs for this, or atleast know the tuning ? ive been tryin to find it for so long and cant get it anywhere :(
Work it out by ear... Makes you a better player all round
So Much was written about Eric Roche as well :)
@spunjamin.. yeah, sadly Eric did pass away due to cancer, he was head of guitar at ACM (academy of contemperary music) and he taught Newton and as you can tell he had an amazing impact on his playing, and in many ways his general outlook on todays music itself, such as using the percussive ellements of the guitar to create the music what he does now. And might i add that the song ''So Much'' is probably my favorite on all of the album lol :)
Take care :)
Sam x
YES! DO IT! :)
no 6thstrin6 is right it's CGCEGC for this too
@SmokinMesa Hi, in case you didn't know, Eric Roche died of throat cancer recently (not quite sure when). Newton Faulkner wrote a song about him which is featured on his new album (called "So Much"). You seem to be a fan of Eric Roche so i thought you should know, in case you were unaware (and Andy Mckee is a legend, i agree)
Haven't heard him really. Must look him up.
But yeah in the long run I think people are more willing to bet on a voice than skilled fingers. And then ofcourse there is alot of other elements involved.
Well... I believe it has alot to do with him singing. McKee and those guys only have guitar which makes a very small audience. I find them all very imprecive and awesome but in the long run I'd rather listen to a voice backed by a guitar than just a guitar.
on the album its half a step down from open d so its d flat a flat etc.... but live he plays it open d
this song is in (from low to high) CGCGGC
yeh its just in this video his guitar is tuned to a lower pitch, still the same tuning as i said before
nope its open d tuning.,., D-A-D-Gb-A-D
Trying to tune your e up to a G usually results in a string snap, I went through three strings once doing it as carefully as I could.
D#G#D#G#A#G# is i need something's tuning for anyone who's interested =]
D standard is used for his live acoustic version of dream catch me with the finger picking... thought i'd add in something other than the new (unbelievable) stuff =]
Keep rockin Newton!! =] =]
its actually DADF#AD, i just worked the whole thing out
his best
I haven't read all the texts comments, so I apologise if I've repeated anyone, but I play this song with the tuning- low to high- D-A-D-F#-A-D
A word about his beautiful guitar : it's a Nick Benjamin, a great luthier in Lewes, East Sussex, England. Check out his website!!
Correction***** its in drop C# muhahaha.....tunning = C#,G#,C#,F,A#,D#....and yes it isnt F# its ...F.....sounds perfect just played it with the song :) Sorry for the earlier mistake..ill try to tab it out for everyone when i get time. :)
The E string is in Drop D and the G string is in F#..... Dont believe me...try it out :) ..... You can play it with a Drop C...and have the G string to compliment it like F# but it seems to low to me personally.. I might be wrong..but you can play with that Drop D and F# on the G string tuning..and it sounds perfect to me :/
Drop C but its really annoying me that I think the other strings are not standard tuning, I can't figure out what it is!!!
is it standard tuning? the E sounds dropped to me but i'm probably wrong
i got it its brilliant this is song is live on it its great!
This new album is going to be fantastic.
