Hold You High

Band Name: By The Tree

Song Name: Hold You High

This is a great song by a Contemporary Christian/Christian Rock trio that

hasn't quite hit it big yet. This is meant for one guitar. I can't tell

what the background guitars are doing. But here it is: 4/4. I recommend

putting a capo on fret 2 to turn it into Key E. Without a capo, it's Key D

is OK if you don't have a capo. Rhythm Pattern: Down Down Up Up Down Up

Chords(in order of appearance):

Verse 1:

I drank from this cup

'Til it watered down my soul

I need you so I'll thirst no more

I started down this path

Such a long long time ago

I need to find my way home

Chorus:

I want to be the one that holds you high

I want to be the one that gives you glory only

I want to be the one that holds you high

I want to be the one that brings you praise

Verse 2:

I'm the king of my desires

I've tried them all a thousand times

I have got to choose between this world and you

It's got a grip I must admit

I can't explain this emptiness

I hurt without you by my side

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:

I cry to you in my darkest hour

And you brought my soul up from the grave

D(strum once and hold)D(strum once and hold) G G

I want to be the one that holds you high

I want to be the one that gives you glory only

I want to be the one that holds you high

I want to be the one that brings you praise

I want to be the one that holds you high

I want to be the one that gives you glory only

I want to be the one that holds you high

I want to be the one that brings you praise

OK I think this is all correct. Any encouragement or advice would greatly be
