[F] [Bb]
[F] [C]
[F] It used to seem to [Bb] me that [F] my life ran on [C] too fast
[F] And I had to take [Bb] it slowly
[F] Just to make the good parts last
When you're born [Bb] to run, [F] it's so hard to just slow down
So don't be surprised [Bb] to see me [F] in the brighter [C] part of town
And [F] I'll be back in the high life again
[Bb] All the doors [F] I closed one time [C] will open up [F] again
I'll be back in [C] the high [F] life again
[Bb] All the [F] eyes that watched me once will smile and take me in
[Bb] And I'll drink and dance [F] with one hand free, let the world back into me
[Bb] Oh, I'll be [F] a sight to see
Back in the high [C] life [F]
again
[Bb] You [F]
[Bb] [F]
[C] [F] used to be the [Bb] best
[F] Thing life really [C] mean
[F] And I hope that you're [Bb] still out there
[F] Feel like you used to be
Have ourselves [Bb] a time
[F] We'll dance till the [C] morning sun
[F] Let the good [Bb] times come we [F] won't stop until [C] we're done
[F] Back [C] in the high [F] life again
[Bb] All the doors [F] I closed one time [C] will [F] open up again
We'll be back in [C] the [F] high life again
[Bb] All the eyes [F] that watched us once will smile and take us in
And [Bb] we'll drink and dance [F] with one hand free
Have the world so easily
[Bb] We'll be [F] a sight to see
back in the high
[C]
[F] We'll be back [C] in the high [F] life again
[Bb] All the [F] doors I closed one [C] time
Open up [F] again
[C]
[F] We'll be back in the high life again
[Bb] All the [F] eyes that watched us once [C] will smile and take [F] us in
back [C] in the high life
[Am] [F]
