                        (break)
[Verse 1]
D                 Gm6       D           Gm6
 On the street of villains, taken for a ride
D                 Gm6        D      Bb Gm
 You can have the devil as a guide
D                Gm6         D               Gm6
 Crippled by the boundaries, programmed into guilt
D                  Gm6              D      Bb Gm
 'til your nervous system starts to tilt.

[Verse 2]
D                   Gm6      D               Gm6
 And in the room of mirrors, you can see for miles
    D                 Gm6            D      Bb Gm
But everything that's there is in disguise
D                  Gm6         D                    Gm6
 Every word you've uttered and every thought you've had
   D               Gm6                    D    D D/E D/F#
Is all inside your file, the good and the bad.

[Pre-Chorus]
G           A      Cm           G         A      Cm
 But in the rising sun, you can feel your life begin
   G                G7                          C                   Cm
Universe at play, inside your DNA, and you're a billion years old today
G       A      Cm           G          A      Cm
Oh, the rising sun, and the place it's coming from
     G         G7              C             Cm
Is inside of you, and now your payment's overdue

[Chorus]
G       A Cm   G    A
Oh, the rising sun,
G        A Cm  |  G  | G      A |
 Oh, the rising sun.

[Verse 3]
D                 Gm6      D             Gm6
 On the avenue of sinners, I have been employed
D                  Gm6           D      Bb Gm
Working there 'til I was near destroyed
      D           Gm6      D               Gm6
I was almost a statistic inside a doctor's case
       D               Gm6            D      Bb Gm
When I heard the messenger from inner space

[Verse 4]
       D            Gm6                D            Gm6
He was sending me a signal that so for long I had ignored
       D             Gm6       D      Bb Gm
But he held on to my umbilical cord
  D                Gm6             D          Gm6
Until the ghost of memory, trapped in my body mind
     D             Gm6        D      D D/E D/F#
Came out of hiding to become alive.

[Pre-Chorus]
G           A      Cm          G         A      Cm
 And in the rising sun you can hear your life begin
         G                 G7
And it's here and there, nowhere and everywhere
           C             Cm
Though its atmosphere is rare
G       A      Cm          G               A      Cm
Oh, the rising sun and the place that it's coming from
     G       G7            C               Cm
Is inside of me, and now I feel it constantly

[Chorus]
G       A Cm   G    A
Oh, the rising sun,
G        A Cm  |  G  | G      A |
 Oh, the rising sun.

[Pre-Chorus]
G           A      Cm           G         A      Cm

G                   G7                          C                   Cm
Universe at play, inside your DNA, and you're a billion years old today
G       A      Cm           G          A      Cm
Oh, the rising sun, and the place it's coming from
     G         G7              C             Cm
Is inside of you, and now your payment's overdue

Oh, the rising sun,

Oh, the rising sun,
G      A  Cm   G
Mh, mh-mh-mh
