[Eb]Can't see nothin' in front of [Bb]me

[Eb]Can't see nothin' coming [Bb]up behind

[Eb]Make my way through this [Bb]darkness

[Eb]I can't feel nothing but this chain [Bb]that binds me

[Eb]Lost track of how far I've [Bb]gone

[Eb]How far I've gone, how [Bb]high I've climbed

[Eb]On my back's a sixty pound [Bb]stone

[Eb]On my shoulder a half [Bb]mile of line

 

[Eb/Bb]Come on up for the [Bb]rising

[Eb/Bb]Come on up, lay your [Bb]hands in mine

[Eb/Bb]Come on up for the [Bb]rising

[Eb/Bb]Come on up for the [Bb]rising tonight

 

[Eb]Left the house this [Bb]morning

[Eb]Bells ringing [Bb]filled the air

[Eb]I was wearin' the cross of my [Bb]calling

[Eb]On wheels of fire I come [Bb]rollin' down here

 

[Eb]Come on up for the [Bb]rising

[Eb]Come on up, lay your [Bb]hands in mine

[Eb]Come on up for the [Bb]rising

[Eb]Come on up for the [Bb]rising tonight

[F]There's spirits above and [Gm]behind me

[Eb]Faces gone black, eyes [Bb]burnin' [F]bright

May their precious blood [Gm]bind me

Lord, [Eb]as I stand before your [Bb]fiery [F]light

[Eb]I see you Mary in the [Bb]garden

[Eb]In the garden of a [Bb]thousand sighs

[Eb]There's holy pictures of our [Bb]children

[Eb]Dancin' in a sky [Bb]filled with light

[Eb]May I feel your arms [Bb]around me

[Eb]May I feel your blood [Bb]mix with mine

[Eb]A dream of life comes [Bb]to me

[Eb]Like a catfish dancin' on the [Bb]end of my line

 

[Eb]Sky of blackness and [Bb]sorrow

[Eb]Sky of love, [Bb]sky of tears

[Eb]Sky of glory and [Bb]sadness

[Eb]Sky of mercy, [Bb]sky of fear

[Eb/Bb]Sky of memory and [Bb]shadow

[Eb/Bb]Your burnin' wind fills [Bb]my arms tonight

[Eb/Bb]Sky of longing and [Bb]emptiness

[Eb/Bb]Sky of fullness, sky of [Bb]blessed life

 

[Eb]Come on up for the [Bb]rising

[Eb]Come on up, lay your [Bb]hands in mine

[Eb]Come on up for the [Bb]rising

[Eb]Come on up for the [Bb]rising tonight
