Tammy Wynette - Higher Ground

higher ground

A E A
well , i have sat alone at night and cried myself to sleep
E A
and i have prayed my soul to take when sorrow seems so deep .
D A
but darkness turns so quickly to the light of day
E A
when someone special came along and carried me away .

chorus :
A D A
you lift me up when i get down , when i’m lost you turn me around
E
wind and rain can’t wash away the peace you give to me .
D A E F#m
and in a sea of trouble i know that i won’t drown
D A E D
i’m safe ’cause your love lifts me to a higher ground ( higher ground )
A
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 .

chorus
