Higher Guitar Tablature
Artist: Creed
Song: Higher
Tuning: Drop D (DADGBe)
Tabbed By: Kevin

	This is a really good song, and is a pretty easy one to play. It was one of the first ones that I learned to play. You can play this song on an acoustic which is the way I first played it, or on an electric like I play it now. You need a distortion pedal if you want to be picky and play it 100% correctly, otherwise have fun, fool around and you'll get it...eventually.

Legend:

/ (slide up the fretboard)
u (strum upwards)
d (strum downwards)

Chords:

	A        	         D                       G

e ||------------|	e ||---2--------|	e ||-----3------|	
B ||----2-------| 	B ||-----3------|	B ||------------|	
G ||----2-------|	G ||---2--------|	G ||------------|	
D ||----2-------|	D ||------------|	D ||------------|	
A ||------------|	A ||------------|	A ||--2---------|	
D ||------------|	D ||------------|	D ||-----3------|

At sunrise, I fight to stay asleep 'cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place.

'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape from the life I live when I'm awake.

Although I'd like the world to change, it helps me to appreciate those nights and those dreams.

D                             G					D                           G
But my friend I'd sacrafice all those nights if I could make the Earth and my dreams the same.

The only difference is to let love replace all our hate.

	Basically thats the song, just follow the order that it has been tabbed and you'll get the song in no time at all. Remember that this obviously isn't my original work, but that of Mark Tremoni and Scott Stapp and the rest of Creed.

Have fun playing it....
