Verse:
[]
I've been crawling

To the mountains
                              
Skinned my knees with blood and hope
   
If I stayed standing

I'd be drowning
                       
The rising waters made me choke


Pre-chorus:
                     
As I am getting nearer
      G                     Asus4---A
My mission is coming clear


Chorus:
                 
I know this road
                      
Never seen it before
                                           
I know what lies behind unopened doors
                                         
I saw the signs from the distant shore
            
That I couldn't ignore...
                     
I'm heading for higher ground


Verse:
             
I left everyone behind me
                
I took everything I know
                     
Half way up and I'm still climbing
                
Still a million miles to go


Pre-chorus:          
                           
The water is drawing nearer
       G               Asus4---A
As everything disappears


Chorus:
                
I know this road
                   
Never seen it before
                                           
I know what lies behind unopened doors
                                         
I saw the signs from the distant shore
           
That I couldn't ignore...
                     
I'm heading for higher ground


Bridge:
            
And my foot slips
         
But I don't quit
                            
And my hand grips the rock
                
Something pulls deep
          
From within me
                           
Til I get there, I won't stop


Chorus:
                
I know this road
                     
Never seen it before
                                           
I know what lies behind unopened doors
                                         
I saw the signs from the distant shore
            Asus4---A
That I couldn't ignore
                             
I know this road
                    
Never seen it before
                                          
I know what lies behind unopened doors
                                         
I saw the signs from the distant shore
           
That I couldn't ignore
                      
I'm heading for higher, higher ground


Outro:
                       
Way up here, the air is thin
                      
Feels like I could go so far
