Higher Ground A (x02220@1) E (022100@1) AWell, (x02220@1)I have sat alone at night and cried myself to sleep E (022100@1) AAnd (x02220@1)I have prayed my soul to take when sorrow seems so deep. D (xx0232@1) ABut (x02220@1)darkness turns so quickly to the light of day E (022100@1) A (x02220@1) When someone special came along and carried me away. Chorus: A (x02220@1) D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1)You lift me up when I get down, when I'm lost you turn me around EWind (022100@1)and rain can't wash away the peace you give to me. D (xx0232@1)A (x02220@1) E (022100@1) F#m (244222@1) And in a sea of trouble I know that I won't drown D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1) E (022100@1) D (xx0232@1)I'm safe 'cause your love lifts me to a higher ground (higher ground) A (x02220@1)To a higher ground. Troubled times may bring me down and drive me to my knees And I am blinded by despair and cannot see. But you take a hold and carry me again Then I know I'll never break though I sometimes bend.
