RISE by Tom Francis
Album: From Up There

Standard Tuning, No Capo
This is a basic tab of the song, but if you listen to the track you can hear that on each chord
he often does a little alternation between chords. You can easily make this song sound very good and give it
some more flair than what is written by strumming and doing progressions like:

  Am  Am*  C   C*  G   D   D*  D**
e|-0---0---0---0---3---2---0---3---|
B|-1---0---1---1---3---3---3---3---|
G|-2---2---0---0---0---2---2---2---|
D|-2---2---2---0---0---0---0---0---|
A|-0---0---3---3---2---------------|
E|-----------------3---------------|

That's the progression I follow when playing this song, but as you start playing it you can see how easy it is
to add or subtract notes in the chords to give it more variation. But, for interest of simplicity, I have 
written only the base chord changes needed to play the song.


[Intro]

Am C G D
Am C G G


[Verse 1]

                  Am          C
Was going through changes
               G           D
They've been coming for a while
                 Am           C
Was hiding from dangers
           G            D
That I hear'd in the bright nights


[Pre-Chorus]

   Am      C        G        D
And I hold up my hands, this will be
Am    C      G       G
  my final stand


[Chorus]

         Em          C           G         G
Before I rise, rise, rise, rise, rise
                   Em       C     G        G
Through all of the troubles in my life
                   Em       C        G
Through all of the battles that I'll fight
C     D    Em C G G
I'm gonna ri-ise


[Verse 2]

                  Am         C
Slip through the fingers
       G                  D
Of the hands that held me up
                    Am          C
It's a feeling that lingers
       G            D
And it overflows my cup


[Pre-Chorus]

     Am    C       G      D
And I hold up my hands, this will be
Am     C     G
  my final stand


[Chorus]

         Em          C           G         G
Before I rise, rise, rise, rise, rise
                   Em       C     G        G
Through all of the troubles in my life,
                   Em       C        G
Through all of the battles that I'll fight
 C    D    Em C G D
I'm gonna ri-ise


[Verse 3]

                  Am         C
My head looks for answers
        G             D
That my heart already knows
              Am            C
I'm taking my chances
        G            D
And I'm letting every-thing go


[Pre-Chorus]

     Am    C       G      D
And I hold up my hands, this will be
Am     C     G
  my final stand


[Chorus]

         Em          C           G         G
Before I rise, rise, rise, rise, rise.
                   Em       C     G        G
Through all of the troubles in my life,
                   Em       C        G
Through all of the battles that I'll fight
 C    D    Em C   G
I'm gonna ri-ise
