Intro: B A

Verse 1:

B                     A
   God knows that you tried
                   B
   To keep me satisfied
                      A
   Your death-defying grace
                   B
   Held me by your side
                          A
   But now those days are gone
                          B
   And I´m free to get it on
                  A
   With anyone I like
                      B
   Before the morning light

                   A
   It´s so hard to find
                        B
   I´ve got blood on my mind
              A         B
   I fear the dawn

Chorus:

B             A    D
   The rising
B             A    E
   The rising sun
D               F#             E
   When morning comes the race is run

   The race is run
B             A    D
   The rising
B             A    E
   The rising sun
D               F#             E
   When morning comes the race is
                                  B
   When morning comes the race is run


Verse 2:

   We couldn´t have carried on
   Through the years
   That´s why you´re gone
   Now the devil is by my side
   Choosing my new bride

   But it's so hard to find
   I´m feeling outshined
   My time has come

Chorus:

   The rising
   The rising sun
   When morning comes the race is run
   The race is run

   The rising
   The rising sun
   When morning comes the race is
   When morning comes the race is run

Chorus:

   The rising
   The rising sun
   When morning comes the race is run
   The race is run

   The rising
   The rising sun
   When morning comes the race is
   When morning comes the race is run
