Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

– -

–

Somebody told me once in a lifetime

Destiny finds you and blows you away

Spins you in circles pulls you in pieces

Bleeds you like Jesus and goes on its way

But it's oh so simple sometimes

Just to lay your heart open wide

If you wanna get to heaven then you gotta take the ride

Chorus

Love lift me wherever you are

Convince me I'm safe in your arms

Love lift me make sense of it all

– –

Teach me to fly and don't let me fall

Somebody told me love makes you stupid

Makes you go crazy makes you go blind

Comes uninvited and leaves when it wants to

Calls you at midnight and ties up your line

But it's oh so sweet when it's right (there's nothin' better)

And you swear you won't but you might (you're gonna try)

Gotta fumble in the dark if you wanna see the light

CHORUS

Bridge

And when it's all said and done it's just the same for everyone

You're busy making your plans love's like a bird, baby

Flying out of your hands

(Instrumental -- same chords as CHORUS)

And it's oh so hard to explain (we don't know nothin')

And your heart gets hold of your brain (but still we try)

Better batten down the hatches baby here we go again

Love lift me wherever you are

Convince me I'm safe in your arms

Love lift me I'm waiting on you

'Cause nothing can lift me the way that you do

Love lift me (Lift me up, lift me up, only love can take me higher)

Love lift me (Lift me up, lift me up, take me to a higher ground)

Love lift me (only love can take me higher)

I wanna fly
