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. ( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/tammy_wynette/higher_ground_crd.html ) 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.
