5 years ago
Capo on 1st fret
 
[C] The streets of persuasion
[A#] Are plated with g[G]gold
[C] Your heart's in the right place,
But you tr[A#]travel down the wrong r[G]road
[C] Like so many before you
[A#] The gates open w[G]wide
 
Here come the ri[C]rising tide [A#] [G]
 
Let's [C]go out, to[G]tonight
There's a my[Am]mystery underneath the neon l[F]lights
[C]Before life and dream [G]collide
Cause the tr[Am]truth's gonna come and cut me open [F]wide
And you c[F]an't escape the r[Em]ising of the[Am] tide
 
[C] Keep up your appearance[A#]appearance, you're joining the [G]choir
[C] With everybody singing out
"[A#]"Glory Halle[G]Hallejuah"
[C] The time came for your solo
[A#] But there's nowhere to h[G]hide
 
Here come the ris[C]rising tide [A#] [G]
 
And the co[C]company you [G]keep
Well they [Am]plan your crucifiction as we [F]speak
So, baby 'till l[C]life and dream the [G]collide
There's gonna be a m[Am]mystery underneath those neon [F]lights
If you ca[F]can't decipher [Em]just who's on your[Am]your side
You will [F]not escape the ri[Em]rising of the [Am]tide
 
[C]Can you tell me brother? was I deceived, or in [Am]denial?
[C]I was there, on the back of the room, when you te[D]testified[G]stified
With your pi[Am]pitchfork tongue, you licked your lips, and [F]lied
We're never gonna kn[C]know how hard you [G]cried
When you pet[Am]petitioned and your access was d[F]denied
'Till the v[F]venom in your [Em]veins is sa[Am]satisfied
'Till you su[F]suffocate and s[Em]swallow down the [Am]pride
 
Well you c[F]can't escape
(You c[G#]can't escape)
Yeah [Am]you can't escape
(You c[G#]can't escape)
No you c[F]can't escape the [Em]rising of the[Am]the tide
