heard this song a few days ago on 100 . 5 in birmingham , al , and just loved it .
most of this is direct from the “manners album chords” already posted , but i think
a few chords weren’t quite right . so i figured i might as well post the song by itself .
enjoy : )

little secrets
intro : A# F C Dm
A# C Am Dm
A# F C Dm
A# C Am Dm
verse 1 :
A# C G Am
when i came down the dawn poured into me
A# C G Am
i shook ’em up , the walls came crumbling
A# C G Am
my thin skin trembling with these salty wounds
A# C G Am
my stolen gold inside the emperors tomb
A# C G Am
now painting rainbows on my ugly face
A# C G Am
i built this cardboard neighborhood’s disgrace
A# C G Am
but i ascend and serve my feverish need
A# C G Am
within the confines of such chemistry
pre – chorus :
F A#
it’s the way i see
Dm
everything i need
C
it’s the way to be
chorus :
A# F
let this be our little secret
C Dm
no one needs to know we’re feeling
A# F
higher and higher and higher
A# Dm
higher and higher and higher
A# F
but i feel alive and i feel it in me
C Dm
up and up i keep on climbing
A# F
higher and higher and higher
C Dm
higher and higher and higher
refrain : A# F Am Dm
A# F Am Dm
Gm9 Am7 A#
verse 2 :
A# C G Am
my face blew up at such a casual sight
A# C G Am
the smattered colors of ecstatic fright
A# C G Am
the rush above me to oblivion
A# C G Am
outlining wet sidewalks with halogen
A# C G Am
oh have you ever felt so goddamned strong?
A# C G Am
how come it takes some people so damn long
A# C G Am
he turned to squeeze the lemon juice to rain
A# C G Am
the citrus drawing out the scene it stains
pre – chorus :
F A#
watch the basin drain
Dm
as your life lines wane
C
and you cant explain
A#
as your friends complain
F A#
you’ve caused all this pain
Dm
and you proudly shame
C
your whole family’s name
chorus :
A# F
let this be our little secret
C Dm
no one needs to know we’re feeling
A# F
higher and higher and higher
A# Dm
higher and higher and higher
A# F
but i feel alive and i feel it in me
C Dm
up and up i keep on climbing
A# F
higher and higher and higher
C Dm
higher and higher and higher
bridge :
A# F
mother i can tell what you’ve been thinking
C
staring at the stars on your ceiling
C Dm
thinking once there was a power that you were wielding
C
and now i’ve hit the mark
Am
stabbing at the dark
Dm C A#
and i cannot help but ignore the people staring at my scars
chorus :
A# F
let this be our little secret
C Dm
no one needs to know we’re feeling
A# F
higher and higher and higher
A# Dm
higher and higher and higher
A# F
but i feel alive and i feel it in me
C Dm
up and up i keep on climbing
A# F
higher and higher and higher
C Dm
higher and higher and higher
