F           Am                         G  
 Tell a lie, play with fire, oh it's natural
F             Am                       G
 Down a sight, don't know why it's irrational
F                  Am                            G
 You caught my eye, I passed her by, I couldn't let you go
F                  Am                              G
 And all the while, it's out of sight, but we're keeping on

[PD-C HORUS]
    Em                  F             Am                     G
And now I wish we could run away from here now and just go away
       Em           F               Am                       G
'Cause all I see is fighting oh and lying and I just can't stay

[CHORUS]
           Em              F
And I take you to a higher place
             Am                      G
Won't come down for the rest of my days
       Em              F
I take you to a higher place
             Am                      G    Em  
Won't come down for the rest of my days

[VERSE]
F           Am                               G 
 Try and try to do what's right, it's paradoxical
F          Am                           G
 To justify every lie, as though it's fashionable
F             Am                              G 
 Fire in line, it's just outside, it's all imaginable
F              Am                          G
 And all the ?, you look inside, so hypocritical

[CHORUS]
           Em              F
And I take you to a higher place
             Am                      G
Won't come down for the rest of my days
       Em              F
I take you to a higher place
             Am                      G
Won't come down for the rest of my days

[INTERLUDE]
F  Am  G    2x

[CHORUS]
       Em              F
I take you to a higher place
             Am                      G
Won't come down for the rest of my days
       Em              F
I take you to a higher place
             Am                      G
Won't come down for the rest of my days

       Em              Dm
I take you to a higher place
             Am                      G
Won't come down for the rest of my days
       Em              F
I take you to a higher place
             C                      G    Em  F
Won't come down for the rest of my days
             C/G                      G
Won't come down for the rest of our days
