** pull off then: * hammer on
\ = downstroke
^ = upstroke
I also throw in some pull-off/hammer-ons on the G string when it goes up to the D chord.
G C
I wanna build me a house on higher ground
G C
I wanna find me a word where love's the only sound
D C
High above this road, pale with shiver and doubt
D C
I wanna show you my love, figure it all out
G
With Leah
G C
I walk this road with a hammer and a fiery lantern
With this hand I build, and with this I burn
I wanna live in the same house, beneath the same roof
Sleep in the same bed, search for the same proof
As Leah
D C D G (Solo Trumpet)
G C
I've got something in my heart I've been waiting to give
I've got a life I wanna start, yeah, one I've been waiting to live
No more waitin', tonight I feel the light, I say a prayer
I open the door, I climb the stairs
