UFS 06 Lift Me Up
Unlucky for Some home |
Lift Me Up A jolly uplifting pop tune about the need to open up... the opposite of 'I am a Rock', if you like. UFS 06 Lift Me Up verse A E G D The sun won’t make me wilt, I’ve got a shade for my eyes A E G D I built my house on stilts, for when the waters rise A E G D I keep my mind from guilt, to rise above the lies
I built a tall stockade, to keep me secure I trained in first aid, so I’d have the cure Safe but afraid then you broke down the door
chorus F G Bb C D Lift me up, lift me up, and set me flying free F G Bb C D Lift me up, lift me up, soar in harmony
I was so tightly held, no way in but no way out I was a hermit crab there in my shell, dragging it all about But now you broke that spell, wanna scream, wanna shout
Repeat chorus
Break Bm F#m Open for all to see Bm A A7 The power in vulnerability
Verse in D: D A C G In order to see you must stand tall You have to agree to be open to all Before you break free you must tear down the walls
Chorus in Bb : Bb C Eb F G
Instrumental verse in G to fade-out : G D F C
