It used to seem to me that my life ran on too fast, 
      D              G              D                   A 
and I had to take it slowly just to make the good parts last 
    D                   G           D                 Asus4 
But when you're born to run it's so hard to just slow down, 
   D                     G                   D              A 
so don't be surprised to see me back in that bright part of town
[Chorus]
        D           A          D 
I'll be back in the high life again, 
G               D                     A        D 
all the doors I closed one time, will open up again 
        D           A          D 
I'll be back in the high life again, 
G                 D                     A                 D 
all the eyes that watched me once, will smile and take me in

You used to be the best to make life be life to me, 
      D                      G                    D                A 
and I hope that you're still out there and you're like you used to be 
      D                G              D                      Asus4 
We'll have ourselves a time and we'll dance till the morning sun, 
          D                  G              D                     A 
and we'll let the good times come in and we won't stop till we're done
[Chorus]
         D           A          D 
We'll be back in the high life again, 
G               D                     A        D 
all the doors I closed one time, will open up again 
         D           A          D 
We'll be back in the high life again, 
G                 D                     A                 D 
all the eyes that watched us once, will smile and take us in
[Bridge]
          G                    D 
And we’ll drink and dance with one hand free; 
A                     D           G             D 
and have the world so easily, and oh we’ll be a sight to see; 
            Asus4 A     D 
back in the high  life again
