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                 A4
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

        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

         G                    D
And I'll drink and dance with one hand free;
A                  D            G            D
let the world back into me, and oh I'll be a sight to see;
            A4 A     D
back in the high  life again

You used to be the best to make life be life to me,

and I hope that you're still out there and you're like you used to be
      D                G              D                      A4
We'll have ourselves a time and we'll dance till the morning sun,

and have the world so easily, and oh we?ll be a sight to see;
