A Higher Place
guitar chords lyrics
"A Higher Place" (Petty)
From "Wildflowers"(1994)
Use a capo on the 2nd fret.
Intro: D G C G | D G C | X2
D G C G
We gotta get to a higher place
D G C*
And we gotta leave by night
D G C G
Before that river takes us down
D G C*
We gotta find somewhere that's dry
D G C G
We gotta run like we've never run,
D G C
Or we're gonna lose the light
D G C G
If we don't get to a higher place and
C G C G
Find somebody who can help somebody,
C G Em Asus2 | Em Asus2... |
Might be nobody no more
Well, I fool myself and I don't know why
I thought we could ride this out
I was up all night making up my mind
But now I got my doubts...
I got my eye on the waterline
Trying to keep my sense of humour
But if we don't get to a higher place and
Find somebody who can help somebody,
Might be nobody no more...
G C
We gotta get to a higher place
G C
And I hope we all arrive together
G5 C
We gotta get to a higher place
G C G C
If we wanna survive... the weather!
Break: Verse chords X1
I remember walking with her in town,
Her hair was in the wind
I gave her my best kiss
She gave it back again
Yeah, when I add up what I've left behind
I don't want to lose no more.
But if we don't get to a higher place and
Find somebody who can help somebody,
Might be nobody no more...
Repeat verse sequence to end.
* optional Csus2 at end of
second and 4th lines (e.g., "the light...")
