Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

The streets of persuasion

Are plated with gold

Your heart's in the right place,

 But you travel down the wrong road

Like so many before you

The gates open wide

 Here comes the rising tide

 Let's go away, tonight

 There's a mystery underneath those neon lights

Until life and dream collide

 Cause the truth's gonna come and cut you open wide

 And you can't escape the rising of the tide

Keep up your appearance, you join the choir

With everybody singing out

Glory Hallejuah

The songs get you nowhere

There's nowhere to hide

 Here comes the rising tide

 And the company you keep

 Well they plan your crucifiction as we speak

 So, baby til life and dream collide

 There's gonna be a mystery underneath those neon lights

 You'll petition. but your access was denied

 And you can't escape the rising of the tide

Can you tell me bro was I decided, or in denial?

I was there, on the back of the room, when you testified

 When you took the stand, you licked your lips, and you lied

 Until life and dream collide

 Well I gotta belive there's something on my side

 When the venom in your veins is satisfied

 You'll be running, but there ain't no where to hide

 You can't escape

 (You can't escape)

 You can't escape

 (You can't escape)

 You can't escape the rising of the tide
