On The Rise

Intro: D


Hank:
Verse:
D
Any dolt with half a brain,
D
Can see that humankind has gone 
insane.
D
To the point where I don’t know
D
If I’ll upset the status quo,
D
If I throw poison in the water main.


Pre-Chorus:
G               D
Listen close to everybody’s heart,
    G                  D
And hear that breaking sound.
G                    D
Hopes and dreams are shattering 
apart,
    A
And crashing to the ground.


Chorus:
  D      A          E
I cannot believe my eyes.
        D                   A     
How the world’s filled with filth 
    E
and lies.
          D               A
'Cause it seems to me,
           E             G
The evil inside of me,
          D
Is on the rise.

Katherine:
Verse:
D
Look around,
D
We’re living with the lost and 
found.
D
Just when you feel you’ve almost 
drowned,
D
You find yourself on solid ground.


Pre-Chorus:
          G                    
And you believe there’s good in 
 D
everybody’s heart.
G                D          G
Keep it safe and sound.
          D
With hope you can do your part,
   A
To turn a life around.


Chorus:
  D      A          E
I cannot believe my eyes.
        D               A     
How the world’s finally growing 
  E
wise.
          D               A
'Cause it seems to me,
                  E           G
That some kind of harmony,
          D
Is on the rise.
