“Higher Ways” by Steven Curtis Chapman album: For the Sake of the Call ©1990 Sparrow Song/Careers Music Isaiah 55:8&9; Phillippians 4:6&7 tabbed By Billy Smith/ solachristus289@aol.com I am re-tabbing this song because the one that Lisa originally tabbed is way off! So I have the correct chords for this song. I must give the credit to Dona Sherrill for figuring out some of the strange chords in this song. So here is the correct version. G Em D 1. If I could only fly I’d go up G C G/B and look down from the sky Am7 D so I could see the bigger picture G Em D and lord if I could sit with you at your feet G C G/B Am7 D for an hour or two, I’m sure I’d ask too many questions C G/B Am7 D/F cause there’s so much going on down here, G7sus4 Cmaj7 that I must confess I just don’t understand, D I don’t understand G But I have prayed and at your feet my whole life Bm C D Em has been laid, so I won’t worry I won’t be afraid C Cm G cause my soul is resting on your higher ways. G Bm So let the road ahead become unclear, C D Em oh I am yours so what have I to fear C Cm G If my soul is resting on your higher ways. Ebmaj7 Dm7 G Chorus: Your Higher ways teach me to trust you Ebmaj7 Dm7 G Am7 G/B Your higher ways are not like mine Em Bm Your higher ways are the ways of a father, Bb Am D G hiding his children in his love. (hopefully you can figure out the rest because it is all the same as the other verses) 2. So let it rain and if my eyes grow dim with tears of pain, this hope I have will not be washed away, cause my soul is resting on your higher ways (does an instrumental and then repeats chorus) 3. someday I will fly and maybe then you will take me aside and show me the bigger picture but until I’m with you I’ll be here with a heart that is true, and a soul thats resting on your higher ways.
