higher place

A clear Latin vibe .. so where did this come from waiting in Kuala Lumpa airport? Nice piano riff and muted trumpet.

words and music by Martin Stirrup 2004

higher place

Rif: Am Am/maj7 Am7 Am6 G Gmaj7 G7 E bossa nova

Am G
Feel the sun caress your shoulder
Em Am
Feel the wind ruffle your hair
Am G
If I got to feeling any bolder
Em Am G Am
I might just tell you how much I care

We’ve been friends for a long time
We’ve been friends now for years and years
But what if I picked the wrong time
It could be worse than my darkest fears

When we’re walking together
You seem contented with my face
You say we’re birds of a feather
How can I take this to a higher place

F C
Now it all seems so absurd
G
For I know I must be heard
Am
But I get scared to breathe a word
F C
Still I know I can’t postpone
G
Now that my love for you has grown
E F E
