Biography:
(For the 70s British rock band, see Mr Big.)
Mr. Big combined two popular musical trends of the rock scene in the mid to late 80s: a particular brand of hard rock focused on melodies and listener-friendly choruses made for the arena, and impressive technical proficiency, then called shredding. The seeds for the group were sown when bass player Billy Sheehan (considered one of the top bassists of rock, often thought to be the bass equivalent of guitarist Eddie Van Halen) left David Lee Roth's solo band in 1988.

ALL THE WAY UP
INTRO:E F#m G#m A
VERSE 1
E C#m
I've been staring at this photograph
F#m B
It used to make me laugh - I believed that you would always live forever
E C#m
Nothing's been the same since you've been gone
F#m B
It's hard to carry on - all I see is misery and cloudy weather
A B G#m F#m
Sometimes I think I see your face in the crowd
CHORUS
E C#m
It's too late for saying I love you
F#m B
It's too late for saying goodbye
E C#m F#m B
The memories keep repeating, I'm losing my mind
C#m E A
I'd give anything just to hold you, it's so hard to let you go
E F#m G#m A
All the way up, all the way up to heaven
E F#m G#m A
All the way up, all the way up to heaven
VERSE 2
E C#m
Now I wake up with your voice in my head
F#m B
All the things you said - keep on playing spinning like a broken record
E C#m
And will this ever get easier
F#m B
I can't go on like this anymore I thought we'd always be together
A B G#m F#m
It makes me wonder what it's all about
CHORUS
E C#m
It's too late for saying I love you
F#m B
It's too late for saying goodbye
E C#m F#m B
The memories keep repeating, I'm losing my mind
C#m E A
I'd give anything just to hold you, it's so hard to let you go
E F#m G#m A
All the way up, all the way up to heaven
E F#m G#m A
All the way up, all the way up to heaven
BRIDGE
F#m G#m
And the times you made me smile and the things you got me through
A B
I never thought that they would take you away from me so soon
F#m G#m
I've run out of tears to cry and my heart is on the mend
A B
But I think it's gonna be a while 'til I can feel again oh yeah
