There was a boy, a bitter boy, 
      Am       F         C     G 
Whose golden heart I saw gleaming. 
  F           C       F       C 
I thought I'd win the heart within, 
    Am    F               G    C 
But now I know that I was dreaming. 

    F      C         F     C 
But I will rise, and I will sing, 
  Am       F            C     G 
Until I know I can't conceal it. 
  F       C        F        C 
Because I hold the saddest song, 
  F        G           F    C 
I wish to God I cannot feel it.

    F         C       F       C 
And then the boy, the bitter boy, 
   Am       F              C   G 
He came to me for rest and healing. 
           F      C           F      C 
He reached in his chest, deep in his breast, 
     Am       F                G    C 
Held out the heart for me stil gleaming. 

     F     C          F   C 
But I will rise, and I will sing, 
   Am     F             C     G 
Until I know I can't conceal it. 
  F       C        F        C 
Because I hold the saddest song, 
  F        G           F    C 
I wish to God I cannot feel it.

    F         C      F        C 
And then the boy, me and the boy, 
   Am          F                C     G 
We walked for miles through stormy weather. 
    F      C         F          C 
And hand in hand, we roamed the land, 
    Am          F             G   C 
And held the gleaming heart together. 

     F     C          F     C 
But I will rise, and I will sing, 
  Am      F             C    G 
Until I know I can't conceal it. 
  F       C        F        C 
Because I hold the saddest song, 
  F        G           F    C 
I wish to God I cannot feel it. 

F         C       F       C 
Then the boy, the bitter boy, 
   Am       F               C       G 
He came to take the gleaming treasure. 
           F    C            F    C 
He reached in my chest, deep in my breast, 
    Am          F             G    C 
And took the gleaming heart forever. 

    F       C         F    C 
But I will rise, and I will sing, 
  Am       F             C     G 
Until the day I can't conceal it. 
    F         C        F        C 
And then I'll sing the saddest song, 
    F        G             F    C 
And wish to God you cannot hear it. 

              C                C            
Oh, then I'll sing the saddest song, 
           G             F    C 
I wish to God you cannot hear it.
