High Up

• Intro

I highly recommend picking out variations in octaves of some chords to better fit the ups and downs of the
song. It took me a lot of trial and error to figure out which ones in what sequence matched the original song
best.

Intro
F                C
high up, high up
                              F       Bb Dm7         C
been looking at the mountains high up,       high up
                                      Bb Dm7
been looking at the mountains high up
            C
(looking at the mountains)
                                      F
been looking at the mountains high up
F
high up, high up

Verse 1
                                Gm
behind your back a cold surprise
                             C
in favor of the third degree
                               F
i took a breath & took a knife
                                Bb
no i won’t defend the killer in me
                               Gm
& i wanted to but couldn’t die
                                 C
i know you know what that’s been like
                                    F
never backed down only fell down in blinding light
                       Bb             Gm
you pinned me into evening’s glow, no

Pre-Chorus
Gm
didn’t count on you
                        C
but you counted all day

you’re breaking every rule
                     F
i’m breaking down on every corner
                  Bb
no, healing isn’t easy

Chorus
                                   Gm     Am Bb
but when you look at me i’m lifted high up
               Dm          F
higher than my rain clouds
C              D                Gm      Am Bb
sitting on the mountain now i’m high up
      C#m   Dm        C
never wanna come down
F                D
when you look at me i’m lifted

Gm
blue skies are all i see when
              C                Gm      Am Bb
your eyes are locked on me i’m high up
      C#m   Dm        C F
never wanna come down
F
high up
F

Verse 2
F                             Gm
so when i met my darkest hour
                                C
a traitor to the bleeding night
                            F
you saw me cowered in the corner
                             Bb
& offered me a second chance
                  G            Gm7
now every night i wrestle Love
                                  C
didn’t know that it can hurt this much
                             F
i count to 3 & take the jump
                                Bb
but never really hit the ground

Chorus
Bb                                 Gm
but when you look at me i’m lifted high up
               C
higher than my rain clouds
                                F
sitting on the mountain now i’m high up
            Bb
never wanna come down
Bb
when you look at me i’m lifted

Gm
blue skies are all i see when
              C                Gm      Am Bb
your eyes are locked on me i’m high up
      C#m   Dm        C F
never wanna come down
