C                       G

  You’re broken down and tired

Am               F

   Of living life on a merry-go-round

C                        G

   And you can’t find the fighter

Am                    F

   But I see it in you so we gonna walk it out

C       G     Am              F

  And moooooooooove mountains   We gonna walk it out

C      G     Am (1)

And moooooooooove mountains

 

 

C                        G

   When the silence isn’t quiet

Am                       F

   And it feels like it’s getting hard to breathe

C                          G

   And I know you feel like dying

Am                    F

   But I promise we’ll take the world to its feet

C       G     Am              F

  And moooooooooove mountains   Bring it to its feet

C      G     Am (1)

And moooooooooove mountains

 

 

 

Bridge:

C (1)                   G (1)

   All we need, all we need is hope

                      Am (1)

And for that we have each other

                     F (1)

And for that we have each other

C (1)                          G (1)        Am (1)      F (1)

   We will rise   We will rise  We'll rise  Oh   We'll rise

 

Breakdown:

      C (1)

I’ll rise up  I'll rise like the day

      G (1)

I’ll rise up  In spite of the ache

      Am (1)                         F (1)

I'll rise up   And I’ll do it a thousand times again

 

 

C (1)     G (1)     Am (1)    F (1)

Ooh      Ooh       Ooh        Ooh
