| G | Em | D | |
| 1. If I c | ould only f | ly I'd go up |
| G | C | G/B | |
| and look down | fro | m the sky |
| Am7 | D | |
| so I could see t | he bigger picture |
| G | Em | D | |
| and lord if I coul | d sit with y | ou at your feet |
| G C g/B Am7 D |
| for an hour or two, I'm sure I'd ask too many questions |
| C | G/B | am7 | D/F | |
| cau | se there's s | o muc | h going on down here, |
| G7sus | Cmaj7 | |
| that I must confess I just | don't understand, |
| D | |
| I don't understand |
| G | |
| But I have prayed and at your feet my whole life |
| Bm | C | D | Em | |
| has been | laid, so I wo | n't worry I | won't be afraid |
| C | Cm | G | |
| cause my soul is | resting on your | higher ways. |
| G | Bm | |
| So let the road ahead becom | e unclear, |
| C | D | Em | |
| oh I am yours | so what have I t | o fear |
| C | Cm | G | |
| If my soul is re | sting on your h | igher ways. |
| Ebmaj7 | Dm7 | G | |
| Chorus: | Your | Higher ways teach me to trust you |
| Ebmaj7 | Dm7 | G | Am7 | G/B | |
| Your hig | her ways | are | not | like mine |
| Em | Bm | |
| Your higher ways are | the ways of a father, |
| Bb | Am | D | G | |
| hiding his children in his | love. |
| (hopefully you can figure out the rest because it is all the |
| same as the other verses) |
| 2. So let it rain and if my eyes grow dim with tears |
| of pain, this hope I have will not be washed away, |
| cause my soul is resting on your higher ways |
| (does an instrumental and then repeats chorus) |
| 3. someday I will fly and maybe then |
| you will take me aside and show me the bigger picture |
| but until I'm with you I'll be here |
| with a heart that is true, and a soul thats resting on |
| your higher ways. |
