Song: Higher
By: Creed
Tabbed by: Derrick Barth (http://www.EyeOnRawk.homestead.com/home.html)
Hey everybody, I have never found a tab to this song that was
exactly accurate, so here goes.
REMEMBER: It`s in drop-d tuning
(fret the 6th string on the 7th fret and loosen the string until it sounds like the 5th string). If you`re not in drop-d tuning the whole song will sound crappy.
X = Mute
B = Bend
H = Hold
/ = Slide Up
= Slide Down
Intro (I don`t always strum the notes on E, A, and D with the main line, but oh well…the intro is still playable without em if you ask me.)

the song, I just play it for more sound):

The Song
-Intro
-Guitar Rhythm Figure 1 w/ Intro
-Verse 1
When dreamin`, I`m gone into another world,
time and time again.
At sunrise, I fight to stay asleep,
cuz I don`t (Fill A) wanna leave the comfort, of this place.
Cuz there`s a hunger, longing to escape,
From the life I live, when I`m awake.
-Pre-Chorus-
So let`s go there,
let`s make our escape,
C`mon, let`s go there,
Why just can`t we stay.
-Chorus-
Can you take me higher.
-Fill B
-Chorus
To a place where blind men see.
-Fill C
-Chorus
Can you take me higher.
-Chorus
To a place with golden streams.
-Verse 2
Although I`d, like the world to change,
It helps me to appreciate those nights and those dreams (Fill A).
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.
-Pre-Chorus-
