maybe we'll Dgo for a EmrideD  
Cyou said you'd Dtake me nowEmhere

Cwhispering Dsecrets i Emknow i'm not supDposed to Chear
hold your Dheart with two EmhandsD  
Cgive it to Dme Emonly to DdisappeGar
Gand look how Dlow i've sunk
don't ask me to Emrise
i'll lose you when i am Chigh
Ghey look how Dlow i've sunk
don't ask me to Emrise

Rise — Azure Ray

I'm really kind of winging it, but this seems to work,

so I'll put it up. Capo on the fourth fret.

C D Em D

today i'll crawl out of bed

C D

i can't stand

Em D C

your shadow is too heavy to lift

D Em D

maybe we'll go for a ride

C D Em

you said you'd take me nowhere

D C

i said that suits me just fine

D Em D

know you've always been near

C D Em D C

whispering secrets i know i'm not supposed to hear

D Em D

hold your heart with two hands

C D Em D G

give it to me only to disappear

G D

and look how low i've sunk

don't ask me to rise

i'll lose you when i am high

G D

hey look how low i've sunk

don't ask me to rise

C Em

i'll only lose you when i'm high

C D Em D

all alone in the dark

C D Em D C

love survives only when we are apart

D Em D

voice still sounds in my ears

C D Em D G

soft explosions that blossom with the beat of my heart

(chorus)

G D

hey look how low i've sunk

don't ask me to rise

C Em C Em

end on

i lost you when i was high.
