Chorus:
     A#  Gm   C
The rise and fall
     Am             A#   Gm   C
I'm never falling through at all
 Am          A#    Gm  C
Held onto a pound too long
 Am               A#   Gm   C
Seeking all the friends I know

All of this is just a game
I don't give a damn for change
Deep, deep down, we're all the same
Power, glory, money, fame
And reaching out to hear the truth
No matter what it does to you
Secrets hidden in every drawer
But no one knows what we're hiding for

Chorus

Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall

And together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall

Chorus

Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall

And together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
Together we rise and united we fall
