[Verse 1]
C
I used to be broken
F
Stuck in a cage
G
I used to be low down
G
I couldn't be saved
C
Now I feel like a lion
F
That cannot be tamed
AmG
Cause you brought me back to life, to life again
[Pre-Chorus]
CF
I was fearless but so easily
G
I let life fade away the colour of my dreams
CF
Now you're with me, I know I can be
AmG
Higher, higher than higher
[Chorus]
C
(You're lifting me up)
F
If you weren't, you weren't here
Am
I'd be on the ground
G
If you weren't, you weren't here
C
I'd be out of my mind
F
'Cause you are, you are here
AmG
I can be higher, higher than higher
C
(You're lifting me up)
F
If you weren't, you weren't here
Am
I'd be lost in the fire
G
If you weren't, you weren't here
C
Couldn't open up my eyes
F
'Cause you are, you are here
AmG
I can be higher, higher than higher
C
(You're lifting me up)
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
C
The sky is a long way
F
When covered in rain
G
You gave me my vision
G
You gave me my faith
C
And now I'm a fighter
F
I found the flame
AmG
You set me alight, alight again
[Pre-Chorus]
CF
I was fearless but so easily
G
I let life fade away the colour of my dreams
CF
Now you're with me, I know I can be
AmG
Higher, higher than higher
[Chorus]
C
(You're lifting me up)
F
If you weren't, you weren't here
Am
I'd be on the ground
G
If you weren't, you weren't here
C
I'd be out of my mind
F
'Cause you are, you are here
AmG
I can be higher, higher than higher
C
(You're lifting me up)
F
If you weren't, you weren't here
Am
I'd be lost in the fire
G
If you weren't, you weren't here
C
Couldn't open up my eyes
F
'Cause you are, you are here
AmG
I can be higher, higher than higher
C
(You're lifting me up)
[Bridge]
F
Just one way for us now
Am
There's no coming down
G
You've brought me back to life
CF
So I'm gonna go up
AmG
Higher, higher than higher
FG
Higher than higher, higher than higher
[Chorus]
C
(You're lifting me up)
F
'Cause you are, you are here
Am
Got my feet off the ground
G
'Cause you are, you are here
C
Still losing my mind
F
'Cause you are, you are here
AmG
I can be higher, higher than higher
C
(You're lifting me up)
F
'Cause you are, you are here
Am
Now I've found the fire
G
'Cause you are, you are here
C
I can open up my eyes
F
'Cause you are, you are here
Am
I can be higher
G
Higher than higher
[Outro]
C
Higher than higher
F
Higher, higher than higher
AmG
Higher, higher than higher
CF
Higher, higher than higher
AmG
Higher, higher than higher
C
You're lifting me up
F
Higher, higher than higher
AmG
Higher, higher than higher
