Artist: Switchfoot
Album: Vice Verses
Intro: C#5 C#5 C#5 C#sus4 (x6)
Verse 1:
A[C#5]nother couple kids with their heads on top[C#sus4]
[C#5]Just another stranger just another plot[C#sus4]
A[B5]nother track home where the city streets stop[Bsus4]
[C#5]Just another kid with another bored cop[C#sus4]
Verse 2:
[C#5]Just another lemon into lemonade job[C#sus4]
[C#5]Just another rust and dust facade[C#sus4]
[C#5]Just another key stuck broken in the lock[C#sus4]
[C#5]Just another scarecrow choking on a cough[C#sus4]
Oh come on!
Chorus 1:
[E] It all feels so typical
[B] Guess I'm looking for a miracle
[C#m] Rise above it, rise above it
[E] I don't care what their telling me
[B] We could be what we want to be
[C#m] Rise above it, rise above it
Verse 3:
[C#5]Listen up loud listen up listen here[C#sus4]
[C#5]Just because you're running doesn't mean that you're scared[C#sus4]
[C#5]Just because it's law doesn't mean it is fa[C#sus4]ir
[C#5]Never let another tell your soul what to fear[C#sus4]
Verse 4:
[C#5]Here we go again give it one more try[C#sus4]
[C#5]Don't believe the system's on your side[C#sus4]
[C#5]Just another lover turned enemy fight[C#sus4]
[C#5]Just another blood and nicotine sky[C#sus4]
Oh come on!
Chorus 2:
[E] It all feels so typical
[B] Guess I'm looking for a miracle
[C#m] Rise above it, rise above it
[E] I get so sick of it
[B] Feels so counterfeit
[C#m] I rise above it, rise above it
Interlude: C#m (x4)
Bridge:
[A] Hear our voices rise
[B] Hear our battle cry
[C#m] We've been under the curse
[A] With our arms raised high
[B] Hear us sing tonight
[C#m] Like the last night on earth
[A] We will ri[B]se like the ti[C#m]de
Like dead men[E]
Coming back to life
[A] We are rising,[B] rising
Interlude (x2)
Verse 5:
[C#5]Turn it up now, listen loud and clear[C#sus4]
[C#5]Just because you're present doesn't mean you're here[C#sus4]
Oh come on!
Chorus 3:
[E] It all feels so typical
[B] Guess I'm looking for a miracle
[C#m] Rise above it, rise above it
[E] A curse this broken
[B] The system's broken
[C#m] Rise above it, rise above it
Tag:
[E] Let's rise above it
[B] We can rise above it
[C#m] Let's rise above it
[E] Rise above it
[B] Let's rise above it
C#m (one strum)
