Higher Truth

Chris Cornell


Tom: Cm

Db                    Fm
You can make somebody cry
   F#            Bb
Go on
   B                  E
Do what you like
                      G
I’ll be there by your side
  B
I know
         Eb     Abm
What the future holds

Db                      Fm
You can set the world on fire
     F#
Yeah if you want
   B             E
It isn’t hard
                         G
I won’t be there looking on
                    B     Ebm
To see the trail of lies
      Abm
As you fall
 Dm
Aawnn


[Chorus]

                  Ebm
But I’ll take the truth
    Db     Ab
The higher truth
    Bbm     Ab
The higher truth
                  Ebm
But I’ll take the truth
    Db     Ab
The higher truth
    Bbm     Ab
The higher truth


[Verse 2]

Db                          Fm
You can fill the world with pain
     F#
Yeah if you want
     B             E
I've seen it now
                            G
You can fill the world with hate
                    B
I’ve seen it done before
       Eb         Abm
And I know how it all works out

Db                    Fm
Make a promise if you can
     F#
You know
             B         E
You’ll only break it
                      G
Make a promise if you dare
             B
Go on right ahead
          Eb                Abm
And let’s see where it gets you
 Bb
Aawnn

[Chorus]

                  Ebm
But I’ll take the truth
    Db     Ab
The higher truth
    Bbm     Ab
The higher truth
                  Ebm
But I’ll take the truth
    Db     Ab
The higher truth
    Bbm     Ab
The higher truth


Pre-Solo

      Ebm     Db    Cm
Maybe you and I one day
     F#      Bbm
Will finally choose
         Db
A higher truth


[Interlude]

B
Come let’s sit in the sun
F#
Feel the world spin around
Db                   Ab
As the birds fly overhead
B
Can’t you hear the waves
F#
Can’t you feel the rain
Db            Ab
As it falls upon your face


[Solo]

B    F#   Db   Ab   (2x)


[Chorus]

            Abm
I’ll take a truth
  F#     Db
A higher truth
  D      Ebm
A higher truth
           Abm
I want the truth
    F#     Db
The higher truth
  Db     Eb
A higher truth


[Chorus]

                  Ebm
But I’ll take the truth
    Db     Ab
The higher truth
    Bbm     Ab
The higher truth
                  Ebm
But I’ll take the truth
    Db     Ab
The higher truth

The higher truth

[Outro]

B
Can’t you feel the higher
F#
Can’t you feel the higher
Db                     Ab
As it falls around?
B
Can’t you feel the higher
F#
Can’t you feel the higher
Db                     Ab
As it falls around?
