RISE UP (E. Saliers)

st. tuning, no capo.

C majorC D MajorD FF Bb majorBb C majorC G....(x1)

C majorC
Dog at the window still
        D MajorD
looks all day never gets her fill
       FF            Bb majorBb
Cause a glance means a chance
          C majorC          G+G
to break the birds out congregating

C majorC
I have seen a look like that
              D MajorD
you licked your chops from where you sat
        FF       Bb majorBb
Make your kill for a thrill
        C majorC        G+G
and you don't mind waiting

  DmDm       FF
Rise up your dead,
      C majorC           G+G
there's life in the old girl yet
DmDm      FF   C majorC  G+G
Rise up your dead

C majorC
When it bums you out,
       D MajorD
all the hunters sprung to pounce
      FF       Bb majorBb
And at best it's a mess
     C majorC      G+G
like a nest infested

You remember there's more than this
There always was and always is
Tend the artist in your charges,
you are full invested

chorus
 Bb majorBb              FF        C majorC
And if you need to, read your mindless mag
         G+G         Bb majorBb          FF
Call me up for tickets, we'll go see sugarland

And it gets better even when it's been a drag
Just move to the music, move your body to the band and
Rise up!

solo part

THE END!
