[Verse 1]
     Em
Well how was I to know that the dust in my soul
    C
Was there for a reason, but the reason won't show
   G
It could be rust it might be gold
     D
It's out of my hands on with the show
    Em
The prize that already bears my name
           C
Just gotta get there first before it gets claimed
         G
and I'll call on you when I find the time
      D
and I promise I'll wave goodbye

[Chorus]
C                     G
High above the water, never think twice
D                         Em
Must have been a long way down
         C                          G                D
And I'll catch you when the next sunrise comes back around
       C                          G
Yeah I should have told you I was stuck in my ways
          D                      Em
Must have passed the white flags by
       C                     G               D
But I'm high above the water now, look at me fly

[Verse 1]
    Em
I'm lookin' at the devil standin' in the roses
C
starin' right at me, where you want to go son
G
take what you need but don't wear yourself down
       D
If you stir up trouble you know I'll be around
        Em
but you better not call when the money's not right
       C
In the free of the fall no one to kiss goodnight
G
Take a look around, make yourself at home
     D
Just take a deep breath it will be just fine

[Chorus]
C                     G
High above the water, never think twice
D                         Em
Must have been a long way down
         C                          G                D
And I'll catch you when the next sunrise comes back around
       C                          G
Yeah I should have told you I was stuck in my ways
          D                      Em
Must have passed the white flags by
       C                     G               D
But I'm high above the water now, look at me fly
