[Verse 1]
G6 Am
You hold my heart fragile in your hands
Em
These minutes count like hours now
Am Em
And every day brings this closer
[Verse 2]
G6 Am
It took a while to clear my head
Em
Went out for hours and wept
Am Em
for everything that I couldn’t know yet
[Verse 3]
G6 Am Em
As I lay this life in these hands now
Em Am Em
Don’t you break these hearts of mine
G6 Am
And I brace myself
Em Am G6
I will brace myself for everything that I don’t know yet
[Interlude]

It’s really been no time at all
Am
But every hour feels like days now
Bm Em
This is a life I’d bargain for

Higher
G
These moments slip through our fingers like grains of sand
G
Never to be lived again (Higher)
G
Mere reflections of their eternal worth
G
Echoes that sound on long after we are gone (Higher)
Bm
Am I to believe that there is more to this
Bm
As I stand before you here with open arms (You leave me holding on to higher...)
Am D
Facing up to nothing less than higher hopes and higher hopes
G G Bm Am D
You leave me holding on to higher hopes
G
Higher higher higher hopes

Higher higher higher hopes
Bm Am D
You leave me holding on to higher hopes
G G
Higher hopes
G Bm Am D
You leave me holding on

You leave me holding on to higher hopes
