Higher Ground

[Intro] C  Am

        F
Well I've been holding

Holding out for something
                    C/G
Something that means nothing

But that's everything I own
              F
Put me in the country

At the foothill of the mountains
                   C/G
A place to call my home

Leaving nothing on the road

          Am    G    C
We ain't afraid of nothing
          Am    G      C
We got nothing left to lose
            Am           G      F
And when the river comes to your door
Am         G      C
I just wanna ride with you
Am         G      C
I just wanna ride with you

                F
Stranded in the city

With nothing going down
                      C/G
But I remember when we started

The search of higher ground
                     F
Wait until the night time

We'll be dancing in the moonlight
                       C/G
Singing songs about our homes

The ones we left so long ago

          Am    G    C
We ain't afraid of nothing
          Am    G      C
We got nothing left to lose
            Am           G      F
And when the river comes to your door
Am         G      C
I just wanna ride with you
Am         G      C
I just wanna ride with you

( C  Am )

    C        Am
How long how long
     C        G    C
How long till higher ground
    C        Am
How long how long
     C        G    C
How long till higher ground
     Am      C
How long how long
     Am        G     C
How long till higher ground

          Am    G    C
We ain't afraid of nothing
          Am    G      C
We got nothing left to lose
            Am           G      F
And when the river comes to your door
Am         G      C
I just wanna ride with you
Am         G      C
I just wanna ride with you
