Artist: The Nightwatchman
Song: Rise to Power
Album: The Fabled City
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
Dm E Am
