Cover | Higher by Creed

played by Blue Hat Beru

Notes from Blue Hat Beru: I first heard this song in class in second year high school when Ms. Chiongson, our English teacher, played it on the stereo and let us critique the song lyrics. Ever since then, I've loved listening to Creed and have been following their albums. I think this song is supposed to be played on two guitars (one rhythm and one lead), but I tried adapting it for one person. It's a bit harder to play that way so it may sound rough in certain areas of the song, but I hope you'll like this.

(Please wait for the IMEEM to load. It should play automatically after 10-20 seconds.)


Lyrics

I
When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake


Refrain
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Chorus
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets

II
Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Chorus
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets

Refrain
So lets go there, lets go there,
Come on, lets go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Bridge
Up high I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine

Chorus
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets

Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
