Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Difficulty: Novice Verse 1: Gm When the ones who run the firehouse Are the ones who start the fire Bb And the lawless make the laws And every preacher is a liar Cm When the ones who damn the innocent Are on the nightly news and front page Gm An old man said to me It’s not who but what you know Bb And knowledge isn’t wisdom
without control Cm Better still to be the changes That you want to see Gm But they come slow, I know Chorus: Gm Bb F And you said rise above Cm Open your eyes up. Gm Bb F And you said rise above D I can’t, I can’t Verse 2: Gm For every heart that bleeds Bb Will colour your world red Gm And the sorrow in the night D Will be the blue you cannot shed Gm But your strength will be a vision Bb Beyond visibility Cm And the gift you have within Gm Will give you new eyes to see Chorus: Gm Bb F That you can rise above Cm Swing through the skies above Gm Bb And you shall rise above D Yourself Bridge: Gm Bb Know that I’ll be watching Gm Bb Know that I’ll be waiting Peter/SM: Gm Standing on the precipice Cm I can soar away from this Chorus: Gm Bb F And you can rise above (Free your soul) Cm Open your eyes up (Rise above yourself and take control) Gm Bb And you can rise above (The need to love) D Yourself (To release yourself and rise above it all) Gm Bb F And you can rise above (I will be there) Cm Open your eyes up (You were never alone) Gm Bb And you can rise above (Inside your dreams) D Yourself (I’ve been watching and waiting for you) Gm Bb F And you can rise above Cm Open your eyes to love Gm Bb F And you can rise above D Yourself Verse 3: Cm And every heart that bleeds Bb Will colour your world red Cm And the sorrow in the night Gm Will be the blue you cannot shed Cm And your strength will be a vision C Beyond visibility Bb And the gift you have before you Cm Will give you new eyes to see
