The Alan Parsons Project - Standing On Higher Ground

The Alan Parsons Project - Standing on Higher Ground

Track #4, Gaudi, 1987







[F]I know the truth but I can't [Bb]say

And [Ebsus4]I have to turn my [Eb]head and look the [F]other way

[F]I'm not afraid and I won't [Bb]lie

As [Ebsus4]long as I see no [Eb]wrong I won't need to [F]testify



[F]I see the world and I'm [Bb7]looking from a high place

[Bbsus4]Way above it all standing on higher [F]ground

[F]I breathe the air while they're [Bb7]running in a rat race

[Bbsus4]Way above it all standing on higher [F]ground



[F]I feel the blow but I don't [Bb]speak

And [Ebsus4]I have to close my [Eb]eyes pretending [F]I'm asleep

Well [F]I see the tears but I don't [Bb]cry

As [Ebsus4]long as I do no [Eb]wrong I don't need an [F]alibi



[F]I see the world and I'm [Bb7]looking from a high place

[Bbsus4]Way above it all standing on higher [F]ground

[F]I breathe the air while they're [Bb7]running in a rat race

[Bbsus4]Way above it all standing on higher [F]ground
