This is the first tab I have uploaded but not the first transcription I have done. I
this will give u a pretty accurate idea of how to play "lift me up." This is of coarse a
tune and every time I have accompanied someone singing this song I have played piano
than a guitar. Point being that a lot of the chords are not open chords on a guitar
inversions. For example the intro is C F C, the F is an a 1st inversion so the bass
is actually C. Another point that one should understand with this song is that it is very
If you are going to sing it I would maybe try it in A or Bb. It would make it a lot easier.

Intro: C F C F C Am7 G

[C]This road [F]is anything but simp[C]le
[F]Twisted lik[C]e a riddle I'[Am7]ve seen high and I've seen low[G]
[C]So loud, the voices[F] of all my doubts[C]
[F]Telling me to give up, to[C] pack up and leave to[Am7]wn[G]
[F]Even so, I had to believe[G]
[F]Impossible means nothing to me, yeah[G]

So can you lift me[F] up,[G][C]
Turn the ashes i[F]nto flames[G]
?Cause I have overcom[F]e[G][C]
More than [F]words will ever say[G]
And I've been given hope[F][G][Am]
That there's a light on[F] up the hall[G]
And that a day wi[Am(7)]ll come
When the fight is won[F]
And I thi[F]nk that day has just begun[G][C]
C C/E C/F C/G C (eighth notes)
[C]Somewhere, everybody star[F]ts there
I'm count[F]ing on a small prayer,[C]
[Am7]Lost in a nightmare[G]
But I'm here,[C] and suddenly it's so c[F]lear[C]
The str[F]uggle through the long years[C]
It taught me to outrun m[Am7]y fears[G]
Everythin[F]g worth having, oh[G]
Comes wit[F]h trials worth withstanding[G]

(CHORUS)
[C]Oh, lift me up
[C]Oh, lift me up
[C]Oh, lift me up[G]
[C]Lift me up
[C]Lift me up
[C]Oh, Lift me up[G]

Down and [F]out is overrated[G]
And I need[F] to be elevated[G]
Looking up [F]is not enough[G]
No, I woul[F]d rather rise above[G]
(CHOR[C]US)[F][G]
VAMP A C OR THE CHROUS FOR AN OUT
