Aim a Little Higher

Year: 1995 - Album: Everything That's on My Mind

Written by Charlie Peacock/Randy VanWarmer

	  		  D   G    Cmaj7        D   G    Cmaj7 
 
D                        G                   Cmaj7 
Just about sundown on the levee road near the old fishin' hole 
D                       G                     Cmaj7 
Teaching me to shoot straight and true was your only goal 
C                          D       G 
You threw a can up in the air and smiled 
C                       D         D/F# 
I pulled the trigger, missed by a mile, you said 
 
G                       D/F#       Em 
Aim a little higher and you can't miss 
Am7                    C       D 
Bless that can with a shotgun kiss 
G                    D/F#     Em 
Aim a little higher, try it again 
Am7                          C            D   G 
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher 
 
In later years on a river of tears I drifted home for a while 
Since shame was the only glory I'd ever known, I didn't change my style 
First night home I got drunk and confused 
Mistook you for a fool, you were not amused, you said 
 
Refrain 1: 
Aim a little higher, cause you're not livin' 
All this takin' son and never givin' 
Gonna catch up to you like a ball of fire 
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher 
 
Refrain 2: 
Aim a little higher, you're shootin' too low 
Aim for the dirt and you'll never know 
Glorious redemption or heavenly hope 
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher 
 
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher 
 
C/E        G             D/F#                    G 
In those deceptive moments, in those deceptive days 
C/E                   G  D/F#             Em 
When the dung and the mire look like the high wire 
C             G           Bm                 C2 
Will there be anyone who loves me enough to say? 
            G                   G/B            C 
"You gotta aim a little higher, aim a little, aim a little higher" 
            G                   G/B            C 
"You gotta aim a little higher, aim a little, aim a little higher" 
 
REFRAIN 1 
REFRAIN 2 
 
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher 
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
