that‘s the beginning! I don‘t have the cd on me right now, but if you know 
the song, you probably know the rythym!!!! 
 
 
Here Are the lyrics! 
p.s. there are a few other chords, you probably know them though! 
 
VERSE 1: 
 
 
We Gotta get to a higher place and we gotta leave by night. Before that 
river takes us down we gotta find somwhere that‘s dry 
We gotta run like we never run, or we‘re gonna lose the light. 
We Don‘t get to a higher place and find somebody, can help 
somebody, might be nobody no more 
We gotta get to a higher place and i hope we all arrive together. 
we gotta get to a higher place if we wanna survive the weather) 
 
VERSE 2: 
 
(Well, i fool myself and i don‘t know why 
I thought we could ride this out 
I was up all night making up my mind 
But now i got my doubts 
I got my eye on the waterline 
Trying to keep my sense of humor) 
 
VERSE 3: 
 
(I remember walking with her in town, 
Her hair was in the wind 
I gave her my best kiss 
She gave it back again 
When i add up what I‘ve left behind 
I don‘t want to lose no more)
