The Rising
Bruce Springsteen
Tabbed by Steini
Eb A# Eb A#
Can't see nothin' in front of me Can't see nothin' coming up behind
I make my way through this darkness I can't feel nothing but this chain that binds me
Lost track of how far I've gone How far I've gone, how high I've climbed
On my back's a sixty pound stone On my shoulder a half mile of line
Come on up for the rising Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising Come on up for the rising tonight
Left the house this morning Bells ringing filled the air
Wearin' the cross of my calling On wheels of fire I come rollin' down here
Come on up for the rising Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising Come on up for the rising tonight

I see you Mary in the garden In the garden of a thousand sighs
There's holy pictures of our children Dancin' in a sky filled with light
May I feel your arms around me May I feel your blood mix with mine
A dream of life comes to me Like a catfish dancin' on the end of my line
Eb Bb
Sky of blackness and sorrow (a dream of life)
Sky of love, sky of tears (a dream of life)
Sky of glory and sadness (a dream of life)
Sky of mercy, sky of fear (a dream of life)
Sky of memory and shadow (a dream of life)
Your burnin' wind fills my arms tonight
Sky of longing and emptiness (a dream of life)
Sky of fullness, sky of blessed life
Come on up for the rising Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising Come on up for the rising tonight
