Tall Heights
Out of the Ground Chords
Capo 4, 3/4 time

D                             G                     D         E
What a wreck of a day, what a wreck of a man I've become.
D                          G                        D
What a thing to say, but I said it, I cut and run. 
  G        D             A       D
I tried to divide myself by my desires, 
G        D            A
follow a dream to its grave.
        Bm         A      D            Bm 
But for all of the ways I bury myself, 
  D            A          D
I begged and I pleaded to stay. 

D                           G                       D         E
What a price to pay, what a price to pay for wicked pride. 
D                      G                      D
What a foolish way of abandoning all that you tried. 
G         D          A        D
Loyal's a life for a dog on a leash, 
      G          D             A
I was sure I was born with the hounds. 
       Bm         A        D              Bm
But in all of the ways you bury yourself, 
    D            A          D
the dogs dig you out of the ground. 

D                              G                  D           E
Now I wake in the day when the sun is high in the sky. 
    D                        G                      D
I’m sure I'm on my way or at least I'm not living a lie. 
G       D           A         D
Only to find myself looking behind 
       G              D          A
at the life for which I had been bound
         Bm         A      D             Bm
Cause in all of the ways I bury myself, 
    D         A          D
I'm rising up out of the ground. 
D       Bm        A      D             Bm
Yes in all of the ways I bury myself, 
     D         A          D
I am rising up out of the ground.
