Higher Ground

F     Gm   Dm
Mhm, mhm, mhm
F     Gm   Dm
Mhm, mhm, mhm

[Verse 1]
F                Gm             Dm
I got something burnin' in my chest
    F              Gm          Dm
An ocean made of embers unexpressed
   F               Gm             
Flickers from a heartbeat that 
     Dm
won't change
     F              Gm            
And when my moment comes I've set 
    Dm
my aim


[Pre-Chorus]
C       Dm        G      F     
I know that I'm lucky, yeah, I got 
Bb
it good
C         Dm      G         F   
Still, my body's restless, always on
  Bb
 the move


[Chorus]
F           Gm           Dm
It's in my bloodstream, I
            Bb
Think I'm ready for a higher ground
F            Gm       Dm
Finding my reasons why
           Bb
'Cause I never wanna slow down
F    Gm  Dm
Ooh, ooh
         Bb
Yeah, I never wanna slow down

[Verse 2]
F               Gm              Dm
People say, "a fire's bound to fade"
      F            Gm             
But when I want it bad I just 
   Dm
can't wait
F             Gm            Dm
You can be a cynic all you want
      F             Gm            
But when I'm on my feet I give my 
Dm
all


[Pre-Chorus]
C       Dm        G      F     
I know that I'm lucky, yeah, I got 
Bb
it good
C         Dm      G         F   
Still, my body's restless, always on
  Bb
 the move


[Chorus]
F           Gm           Dm
It's in my bloodstream, I
            Bb
Think I'm ready for a higher ground
F            Gm       Dm
Finding my reasons why
           Bb
'Cause I never wanna slow down
F    Gm  Dm
Ooh, ooh
         Bb
Yeah, I never wanna slow down
F    Gm  Dm
Ooh, ooh
           Bb
Think I'm ready for a higher ground



[Bridge]
F         Gm                  Dm
Call me naive, I got wide eyes
F                  Gm            
But if it goes to hell, I know I 
     Dm
tried


[Chorus]
F           Gm7           Dm7
It's in my bloodstream, I
            Bb
Think I'm ready for a higher ground
F            Gm       Dm
Finding my reasons why
           Bb
'Cause I never wanna slow down
F    Gm  Dm
Ooh, ooh
         Bb
Yeah, I never wanna slow down
F    Gm  Dm
Ooh, ooh
           Bb
Think I'm ready for a higher ground
 F      Gm
