Higher Ground

C   D   F

[Verse]
          C               D
She comes running, don't blame yourself
       F
Don't hurt yourself don't say it's true
       C         D                 F
This city rains down on you rains down on you
                   C                D            F
I don't care about money, I'll just pray for time

There's no easy way

[Bridge]
          Am                      C
So if you feel like taking on the world
        F      D
That's alright
D                          Am     C
We've got the night on our side
C                 F    D
We can walk that line

[Chorus]
C          D              F
I'm on my way to higher ground
C                   D                  F
Lies they build you up then bring you down

     C            D
Some people just love and run
      F
Your time has come
                       C               D           F
Can you hear what I'm saying for this time around
F
I've made up my mind

[Bridge]
            Am                          C
And if your dreams come crashing to the ground
            F   D
Hide your pain
D                    Am     C
Just start all over again
              F    D
On the other side

[Chorus]
C         D                F
I'm on my way to higher ground
C                   D                  F
Lies they build you up then bring you down
F
Don't let it get you down

[Solo]

Am  C  F  D
Am  C  F  D

[Bridge]
           Am                           C               F     D
So as this world lies waiting let there be no sorrow tonight

[Chorus]
C         D              F
I'm on my way to higher ground (We can walk that line)(We can pray for time)
C                   D                  F
Lies they build you up then bring you down (We can walk that line) (So let's pray for time)
C             D                   F
I can't ever lose this thing I've found (We can walk that line)(I've made up my mind)
C          D             F
I'm on my way to higher ground (Higher ground)


[Outro]
            C   D   
Higher ground
        F
Higher ground

     C               D            
The time has come to turn it round
      F
They can't touch you now
     C               D            
The time has come to turn it round
      F
They can't touch you now

        C    D
Higher ground
F
The time has come to turn it round
        C    D
Higher ground
F                        C
They can't touch you now
