[VERSE 1] 
                   C
Well, I’m a simple man
                                         G
With dust on these cracked and calloused hands
                                    F
I ain’t rich enough to buy myself a chance
               C
Like everybody else
                                     G
I got a twisted broken story I could tell
                                              F
Paved the road to hell with stones I laid my  - self
                       Am
And I built it all too well

[CHORUS 1]
  F
I know what I’ve done, and if judgment should come
           C             G           F
I couldn’t face it on my own but the Savior stepped in
                                    Am
Saw the worst of my sin and just e - rased it
                G
Guess you could say I’ve got a friend 
        C
In high places

[VERSE 2]
                 C
Yeah, I'm livin' proof
                                   G
What a carpenter from Nazareth can do
                                        F 
How a hammer and a nail can make things   new
                        C
And I don’t know why He cared
                                    G
Enough to turn His head and hear my prayer
                                            F
Leave Heaven when He could have just stayed   there
                     Am                     G
It really don’t seem fair, no it don't seem fair

[CHORUS 2]
  F
I know what I’ve done, and if judgment should come
           C             G           F
I couldn’t face it on my own but the Savior stepped in
                                    Am
Saw the worst of my sin and just e - rased it
                G
Guess you could say I’ve got a friend
        C        G/B
In high   places

[CHORUS 3]
  F
I know what I’ve done, and if judgment should come
           C             G           F
I couldn’t face it on my own but the Savior stepped in
                                     Am
Saw the worst of my sin and just e - rased it
                G
Guess you could say I’ve got a friend
        F
In high   places

If you need a friend
                                                     G
Who ain’t scared of what you’ve done or where you’ve been
                                      F
Just open up that door and let Him in 
              C
If you need a friend
