Missy Higgins Nightminds chords

Nightminds by Missy Higgins

Missy Higgins was thrust into the limelight in mid-2001 while still at high school. She
won the Australian Triple J "Unearthed" demo competition and her song "All For Believing"
became one of the station's most requested tracks. Missy soon signed a recording deal
with local label Eleven: a music company (through Virgin/EMI). a live recording she'd
made for Triple J found it's way to Los Angeles tastemaker radio station KCRW and they
started playing it. Many U.S. labels responded to the unique sound of her jazz hued voice
wrapping itself around her emotive lyrics.


NIGHTMINDS � Missy Higgins

(Capo 3rd Fret)
VERSE
C	   G	F	C			G	        F
Just lay it all down. Put your face into my neck and let it fall out. 
Em
I know 
I know 
F
I know. 
Em			F
I knew before you got home.
C		     G		F
This world you're in now, 
C		     G
it doesn't have to be alone, 
F
I'll get there somehow, 'cos 
Em		F
I know I know I know
Em			F
when, even springtime feels cold.

CHORUS

C		      G		Am		Em
But I will learn to breathe this ugliness you see, 
F				    G			C
so we can both be there and we can both share the dark. 
C		G	Am		Em
And in our honesty, together we will rise, 
F					G
out of our nightminds, and into the light
		C
at the end of the fight...

VERSE (repeat same chord progression)

You were blessed by a different kind of inner view: it's all magnified. 
The highs would make you fly, and the lows make you want to die.
And I was once there, hanging from that very ledge where you are standing. 
So I know
I know 
I know, 
it's easier to let go.

But I will learn to breathe this ugliness you see, 
so we can both be there and we can both share the dark. 
And in our honesty, together we will rise out of our nightminds 
and into the light at the end of the fight.

...and in our honesty, together we will rise out of our nightminds 
and into the light... at the end of the fight...
