Am
You may write me down in history
Dm
With your bitter twisted lies
Dm
You may trod me down in the very dirt
Dm C Am
And still like the dust I'll rise
Am
Does my happiness upset you
Dm
Why are you best with gloom
Dm
Cause I laugh like I've got an oil well
Dm C Am
Pumpin' in my living room
Am
So you may shoot me with your words
Dm
You may cut me with your eyes
Dm
And I'll rise
F
I'll rise
Am
I'll rise
Am
Out of the shacks of history's shame
Dm
Up from a past rooted in pain
Dm
I'll rise
F
I'll rise
Am
I'll rise

(Am Dm Dm Dm C Am)
Now did you want to see me broken
Bowed head and lowered eyes
Shoulders fallen down like tear drops
Weakened by my soulful cries
(Am Dm Dm Dm C Am)
Does my confidence upset you
Don't you take it awful hard
Cause I walk like I've got a diamond mine
Breakin up in my front yard
(Am Am Dm Dm F Am)
So you may shoot me with your words
You may cut me with your eyes
And I'll rise
I'll rise
I'll rise
(Am Am Dm Dm F Am)
Out of the shacks of history's shame
Up from a past rooted in pain
I'll rise
I'll rise
I'll rise
(Am Dm Dm Dm C Am)
So you may write me down in history

And still like the dust I'll rise
(Am Dm Dm Dm C Am)
Does my happiness upset you
Why are you best with gloom
Cause I laugh like I've got a goldmine
Diggin' up in my living room
(Am Am Dm Dm F Am)
Now you may shoot me with your words
You may cut me with your eyes
And I'll rise
I'll rise
I'll rise

Up from a past rooted in pain
I'll rise
I'll rise
I'll rise
