Intro:
C G Am
Am G F G Am G F


Verse 1:
 C         G     Am
There's a rhythm in rush these days
   Am            G      F
The lights don't move and the colors don't fade
 C           G      Am
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
   Am            G     F
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean

 C           G     Am
There's some things a man cannot know
   Am            G       F
The gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow
     C          G  Am
There's no place to run and no gasoline
  Am             G     F
The Engine won't turn and the train won't leave
  Am             G     F
The Engine won't turn and the train won't leave


Chorus:
  C    G    Am   F
But I will stay with you tonight
 G            Am   F
Hold you close 'til the morning light
  C            G    Am    F
And in the morning watch a new day rise
   Am         G   F
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
   Am         G   F
We'll do whatever just to stay alive


Verse 2:
     C         G   Am
Well the way I feel is the way I write
  Am               G    F
It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies
   C            G    Am
But we've got truth and it's on our side
Am       G     F
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Am         G     F
Oh dawn is coming, open your eyes


Chorus:
  C    G    Am   F
But I will stay with you tonight
 G            Am   F
Hold you close 'til the morning light
C                G    Am
But we've got the truth and it's on our side
Am       G     F
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
Am         G       F
Oh dawn is coming, open your eyes


Interlude:

C        G       F
Dawn is coming, open your eyes (x4)


Outro:
C          G     Am
There's a rhythm in rush these days
   Am            G      F
The lights don't move and the colors don't fade
 C           G      Am
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
   Am            G     F
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean
   C            G    Am
But we've got truth and it's on our side
Am       G     F
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
