D                Gm         D           Gm6
On the street of villains,  taken for a ride
D                Gm          D              Bb  C
you can have the devil as a guide
D               Gm          D               Gm6
crippled by the boundaries, programmed into guilt
D                 Gm               D        Bb   C
'til your nervous system starts to tilt.
D                   Gm             D       Gm6
And in the room of mirrors you can see for miles
D                       Gm           D      Bb  C
but everything that's there is in disguise
D                 Gm          D                    Gm6
every word you've uttered and every thought you've had
D         Gm                              D   (D/(D), D/(E), D/(F#))
is all inside your file, the good and the bad.


G             A   Cm            G          A   Cm
But in the rising sun,  you can feel your life begin
G                     G7
universe at play,  inside your DNA
C                          Cm
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                           C         Cm
is inside of you, and now your payment's overdue
G        A  Cm G    A  Cm7
oh the rising sun, 
G        A  Cm  G
oh the rising sun.

D                Gm      D           Gm6    
On the avenue of sinners I have been employed
D                  Gm             D      Bb  C
working there 'til I was near destroyed
D                 Gm      D                Gm6    
I was almost a statistic inside a doctor's case
D                Gm                   D      Bb  C
when I heard the messenger from inner space

D                   Gm     D                      Gm6 
he was sending me a signal that so for long I had ignored

D           Gm                 D      Bb  C
but he held on to my umbilical cord

D                  Gm      D                  Gm6
until the ghost of memory, trapped in my body mind
D           Gm               D      (D/(D), D/(E), D/(F#))
came out of hiding to become alive.


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 it's atmosphere is rare
G      A       Cm         G               A      Cm
oh the rising sun and the place that it's coming from
      G                    C               Cm
is inside of me, and now I feel it constantly
G        A  Cm G   A Cm7 
oh the rising sun,        
G      A  Cm  G    
oh the rising sun,
