Higher Ground chords by Tammy Wynette

Chords with lyrics

A augmentedA				  E MajorE        A augmentedA
Well, I have sat alone at night and cried myself to sleep
			 	    E MajorE        A augmentedA
And I have prayed my soul to take when sorrow seems so deep.
  D MajorD					   A augmentedA
But darkness turns so quickly to the light of day
 				  E MajorE      A augmentedA
When someone special came along and carried me away.

Chorus:
      A augmentedA 				 D MajorD		  A augmentedA
You lift me up when I get down, when I'm lost you turn me around
 						  E MajorE
Wind and rain can't wash away the peace you give to me.
  D MajorD		A augmentedA     E MajorE		  F# minorF#m
And in a sea of trouble I know that I won't drown
  D MajorD        A augmentedA       E MajorE      D MajorD
I'm safe 'cause your love lifts me to a higher ground (higher ground)
      A augmentedA
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
