Higher Chords

Really played on a 7-string tuned down half a step but this works well enough, just play lower versions of the chords/power chords if you have one. Lots of modulation here - begin in Dm, then go to Em for the chorus, then Gm, stay on Gm, go to Bbm ... or really it's Em and Gm all repeated/modulated up a step and a half. (All sounding half a tone lower due to the tuning.).Was this info helpful?

[Verse 1]
 
Dm
   Come and stay, make my day, take away the gray
            Am
And set the wheels in motion
Dm
   Down the road, what you do, come and fall into
C                Bb
At the end of this day
 
Dm
   You can flee, you can be your own enemy
                    Amadd9
In the end you will see no daylight
Dm
   And you try, by and by, falling from the sky
C                 Bb
Like a nine days wonder
A
Come into forevermore
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Em                        C
Give a little try, give a little more try
G                        D
Never fall in line for a fleeting moment
Gm                   Eb
Be and end all, I am aiming high
Cm             Gm/D   D
Climb a little high - er
 
Gm                       Eb
I don't wanna see your affected smile

[Verse 2]
 
Dm
   You can shine or resign, lay it on the line
              Am
Or you make a bid for power
Dm
   Vertigo, overflow, just a cameo
C             Bb
Silent as a whisper
 
Dm
   Raising Cain, break the chain, gather new terrain
                       Amadd9
Time and tide wait for no man ever
Dm
   And your eyes are agleam like you're in a dream
C                 Bb
Getting out from under
A
Getting out from under like you're in a dream
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Em                        C

Reach a little high - er
