Heartache Is An Uphill Climb

Tift Merritt


Tom: A

             A           E        F#m
and the pride forget the fight?
                     D     E    F#m
The one that laid it down so low
                       A    E      F#m
The one still throwing tall shadows
     D    A       D    A
C'mon Tell me


[Chorus]
                   E   D    A
I heard that it was step by step
             E     D     A
That it takes time, time, time
               D     C#m   F#m
The going it is slow, slow, slow
                D      A      D      A
Heartache is an uphill climb


[Verse 2]
                    A  E    F#m
A broken heart holds only fear
                A       E    F#m
What I told mine through my tears
              D    E    F#m
Whatever it is that you feel
                       A    E      F#m
You must be bigger than this hill
        D       A         D    A
You must believe me


[Chorus]
         E   D    A
So I went step by step
             E     D     A
That it takes time, time, time
               D     C#m   F#m
The going it is slow, slow, slow
                D      A      D      A
Heartache is an uphill climb
D   A      D   A


[Bridge]
C#m
Uphill, it's steep steep steep
F#m
I got a lot in front of me (in front of me)
B
I'll never make it there to see
E       E7                   D  A    D  A
If I am carrying your memory


[Solo]
(same as bridge)
C#m F#m B E E7 D A D A


[Chorus]
             E   D    A
I've got to go step by step
             E     D     A
That it takes time, time, time
               D     C#m   F#m
The going it is slow, slow, slow
                D      A      D      A
Heartache is an uphill climb

             E   D    A
I've got to go step by step
             E     D     A
That it takes time, time, time
               D     C#m   F#m
The going it is slow, slow, slow
                D      A      D      A
Heartache is an uphill climb
