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
