If Joni Mitchell

[Verse 1]
If you can keep your head while all about you
People are losing theirs and blaming you
If you can trust yourself when everybody doubts you
And make allowance for their doubting too

[Verse 2]
If you can wait and not get tired of waiting
And when lied about, stand tall, don't deal in lies
And when hated, don't give in to hating back
Don't need to look so good, don't need to talk too wise

[Refrain]
If

[Verse 3]
If you can dream and not make dreams your master
If you can think and not make intellect your game
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same

[Refrain]
If

[Verse 4]
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve you after all of them are gone
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Nothing but the will that's telling you to hold on, hold on
