Intro: C#5 C#5 C#5 C#sus4 (x6)

Verse 1:
 C#5                                       C#sus4
Another couple kids with their heads on top
C#5                                    C#sus4
Just another stranger just another plot
 B5                                           Bsus4
Another track home where the city streets stop
C#5                                    C#sus4
Just another kid with another bored cop

Verse 2:
C#5                                 C#sus4
Just another lemon into lemonade job
C#5                              C#sus4
Just another rust and dust facade
C#5                                      C#sus4
Just another key stuck broken in the lock
C#5                                      C#sus4
Just another scarecrow choking on a cough

Oh come on!

Chorus 1:
E
 It all feels so typical
B
 Guess I'm looking for a miracle

 I don't care what they're telling me

 We could be what we want to be
C#m
   Rise above it, rise above it

C#5                                 C#sus4
Listen up loud listen up listen here
C#5                                                        C#sus4
Just because you're running doesn't mean that you're scared
C#5                                        C#sus4
Just because it's law doesn't mean it is fair
Continues after the ad
C#5                                          C#sus4
Never let another tell your soul what to fear

Verse 4:
C#5                                  C#sus4
Here we go again give it one more try
C#5                                    C#sus4
Don't believe the system's on your side
C#5                                  C#sus4
Just another lover turned enemy fight
C#5                                C#sus4
Just another blood and nicotine sky

Oh come on!

Chorus 2:
E
 It all feels so typical

 I get so sick of it

 With our arms raised high

 Hear us sing tonight

   Like the last night on earth
A          B             C#m
 We will rise like the tide
             E
Like dead men

Coming back to life
A              B
 We are rising, rising

Just because you're present doesn't mean you're here
