Rise To Power

Intro: Am Dm E Am

  Am                        Dm
I counted to one hundred, I kept losing track
  E                                     Am
I wrote a hundred letters, no one wrote back
  Am                          Dm
I told a hundred stories, and all of them got twisted
  E                            Am
I sang a hundred songs, nobody listened

Chorus:
              Dm             Am
You've got to rise to power, rise to power
E                          Am
Baby you've got to rise to power
              Dm             Am
You've got to rise to power, rise to power
F                                        G             Am
Ain't a shade of difference, between the hills and the cowards
E                          Am
Baby you've got to rise to power

Am                 Dm
Forced confessions,  and the coming attractions
E                                   Am
Delusions that grandeur, split into factions
  Am                     Dm
A silent dark camelot, a kingdom gray and black
  E                                   Am
A dull empty heaven, a strong leaders hand


Chorus:
              Dm             Am
You've got to rise to power, rise to power
E                          Am
Baby you've got to rise to power
              Dm             Am
You've got to rise to power, rise to power
F                          G              Am
You're down on your knees, pulling up the flowers
E                          Am
Baby you've got to rise to power


F G Am E Am

  Am             Dm
No holy water can wash me clean
   E                           Am
No angel in my seed to hear my screams
 Am                 Dm
Into your embrace, I ever drift
    E                  Am
And in your arms, unforgiven

Chorus:
              Dm             Am
You've got to rise to power, rise to power
E                          Am
Baby you've got to rise to power
              Dm             Am
You've got to rise to power, rise to power
   F                                  G          Am
The whole world's watching, there's a gun in the tower
E                          Am
Baby you've got to rise to power
