[D]Just about sundown on the[G] levee road near the[Cmaj7] old fishin' hole
[D]Teaching me to shoot str[G]aight and true was you[Cmaj7]r only goal
[C]You threw a can up in the a[D]ir and s[G]miled
[C]I pulled the trigger, mi[D]ssed by a [D/F#]mile, you said
[G]Aim a little higher and [D/F#]you can't m[Em]iss
[Am7]Bless that can with a s[C]hotgun k[D]iss
[G]Aim a little higher, [D/F#]try it ag[Em]ain
[Am7]Aim a little, aim a little, a[C]im a little h[D]ighe[G]r
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]In those de[G]ceptive moment[D/F#]s, in those deceptive da[G]ys
[C/E]When the dung and the [G]mir[D/F#]e look like the h[Em]igh wire
[C]Will there be [G]anyone who l[Bm]oves me enough to s[C2]ay?
"You gotta a[G]im a little higher, [G/B]aim a little, a[C]im a little higher"
"You gotta a[G]im a little higher, [G/B]aim a little, a[C]im a little higher"

Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
Aim a little, aim a little, aim a little higher
