ON THE RISE
Intro: Bm x4
Billy:
Bm
Any dolt with half a brain
Bm
Can see that humankind has gone insane
Bm
To the point where I don’t know
Bm
If I’ll upset the status quo
Bm
If I throw poison in the water main.
Em Bm
Listen close to everybody’s heart
Em Bm
And hear that breaking sound.
Em Bm
Hopes and dreams are shattering apart
F#m A
And crashing to the ground!
Bm7 G
I cannot believe my eyes!
Bm7 A G
How the world’s filled with filth and lies
Bm7 F#m
But it’s plain to see
E/G# Em Bm
Evil inside of me is on the rise.
Penny:
D AD
Look around.
D A D
We’re living with the lost and found
D A D
Just when you feel you’ve almost drowned,
D A D
You find yourself on solid ground,
Em Bm
And you believe there’s good in everybody’s heart.
Em Bm
Keep it safe and sound.
Em Bm
With hope you can do your part
F#m A
To turn a life around.
D G
I cannot believe my eyes
D A G
Is the world finally growing wise?
Bm7 F#m
‘Cause it seems to me
E/G# Em Bm
Some kind of harmony is on the rise.
Both:
D A D
Anyone with half a brain
Take it slow
D A D
Could spend their whole life howling in pain
He looks at me and seems to know
D A D
‘Cause the dark is everywhere and Penny doesn’t seem...
The things that I’m a- fraid to show
D A D
...to care that soon the dark in me is all that will remain.
And sud- den- ly I feel this glow
Em Bm
Lis- ten close to everybody’s heart
And I believe there’s good in everybody’s heart.
Em Bm
And hear that brea-king sound.
Keep it safe and sound.
Em Bm
Hopes and dreams are shatter-ing a- part
With hope you can do your part
F#m A
And crashing to the ground!
To turn a life around.
D G
I cannot believe my eyes!
I cannot believe my eyes.
D A G
How the world’s filled with filth and lies,
How the world’s final- ly grow- ing wise.
Bm7 F#m
But it’s plain to see
And it’s plain to see
E/G# Em Bm
Evil inside of me is on the rise.
Rapture in-side of me is on the rise.
ETA: Apparently I'm not the only one to have posted something like this in the last few days, but mine's the most accurate I've seen (of course I would think that!)
