There [B] was a boy, a bitter boy Whose golden heart I [C#] saw gleaming
I thought [B] I'd win the heart within But [C#] no one knew that I was [B] dreaming
But I will rise and I will sing Until I know I can't conceal it
Because I hold the saddest song I wish to God I cannot feel it
And then the boy, [E] the [B] bitter boy He came to [C#] me for rest and healing
He reached in [B] his chest, deep in his breast Held out the [E] heart for [C#] me still gleaming
But [B] I will rise and I will sing Until I know I can't conceal [F#] it
[E] Because [B] I hold the saddest song [C#] I wish to God I cannot [B] feel it

[F#] [B]
And then the boy, the younger boy We walked for miles through stormy weather
And hand in hand we roamed the land And held the gleaming heart together
But I will rise and I will sing Until I know I can't conceal [F#] it
Because [B] I hold the saddest song I wish to [F#] God I cannot [B] feel it
And then the boy, the bitter boy He came to take the gleaming [F#] treasure
[E] He reached [B] in my chest, deep in my breast And [E] took the gleaming heart forever
[B]
But I will rise [E] and I [B] will sing [E] Until the day I [C#] can't conceal [F#] it
And [B] then I'll sing the saddest song And [F#] wish to God you [B] cannot hear it
Oh then I'll sing the saddest song I wish to God you cannot [C#] hear it
