Intro: Am Dm E Am

1. I [Am]counted to one hundred, I [Dm]kept losing track
I [E]wrote a hundred letters, no one wrote [Am]back
I told a hundred stories, and all of them got twisted 
I sang a hundred songs, nobody listened

R: You've got to [Dm]rise to power, [Am]rise to power     
[E]Baby you've got to rise to [Am]power
You've got to [Dm]rise to power, [Am]rise to power
[F]Ain't a shade of difference, between the [G]hills and the [Am]cowards
[E]Baby you've got to rise to [Am]power

2. Forced confessions,  and the coming attractions
Delusions that grandeur, split into factions
A silent dark camelot, a kingdom gray and black
A dull empty heaven, a strong leaders hand

R: You've got to rise to power, rise to power
Baby you've got to rise to power
You've got to rise to power, rise to power
You're down on your knees, pulling up the flowers
Baby you've got to rise to power

3. No holy water can wash me clean
No angel in my seed to hear my screams
Into your embrace, I ever drift
And in your arms, unforgiven

R: You've got to rise to power, rise to power
Baby you've got to rise to power
You've got to rise to power, rise to power
The whole world's watching, there's a gun in the tower
Baby you've got to rise to power
