Full Moon Rising

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

The sky turns copper over the hills

My breath hangs pale and slow

A thousand stars are waking up

I hear the river below

Old vows I made when I was young

Come knocking at my door

I never thought I'd stand this tall

I never asked for more

Pre-Chorus

Rise up

Rise up

The silver climbs the wall

Rise up

Rise up

I answer when it calls

Chorus

Full moon rising over me

Full moon rising wild and free

Full moon rising burning white

I will not bow tonight

Full moon rising over me

Full moon rising wild and free

Every shadow learns my name

Nothing stays the same

Post-Chorus

(Oh-oh) Nothing stays the same

(Oh-oh) Nothing stays the same

Verse 2

My father's hands were cracked and kind

He taught me how to stand

My mother sang the harvest down

With nothing in her hand

They're gone now like the summer rain

But something in me stays

A stubborn fire a steady drum

That no one can erase

Pre-Chorus

Rise up

Rise up

The silver climbs the wall

Rise up

Rise up

I answer when it calls

Chorus

Full moon rising over me

Full moon rising wild and free

Full moon rising burning white

I will not bow tonight

Full moon rising over me

Full moon rising wild and free

Every shadow learns my name

Nothing stays the same

Bridge

I have carried every stone

I have buried every doubt

I have walked the longest road

And I am still here now

Chorus

Full moon rising over me

Full moon rising wild and free

Full moon rising burning bright

I am not afraid tonight

Full moon rising over me

Full moon rising wild and free

Every shadow learns my name

Nothing stays the same

Post-Chorus

(Oh-oh) Nothing stays the same

(Oh-oh) Nothing stays the same

(Rise up) Nothing stays the same

(Rise up) Nothing stays the same
