Lowdown on the High Life James Otto
Lowdown on the Highlife
Otto/Howell/Bergsnes
INTRO: D G D G
[D]He played guitar in a [G]honky-tonk [D]band
[G]He drank Jack [D]Daniels [A]Black Label brand
He was the [D]life of the party 'til they [G]closed down the [D]bar
And in the [G]eyes of a [D]young boy, [A]he was a [G]star
CHORUS:
He'd say [D]son don't you run [F#m]down the [G]roads that I've [D]run
And [D]don't go and [F#m]sing all the [G]songs that I've [A]sung
'Cause [Bm]this kind of [A]livin' takes its [G]toll on a [C]man
And thru the [G]smoke and the [D]neon, I [A]saw it first [Bm]hand
I got the [G]lowdown on the [D]high life, but [A]still here I [D]am
INTRO
The booze and the bottle held him under their spell
They took him to Heaven and put us thru hell
Well sometimes I feel him up on this stage
His restless spirit still runs thru my veins
CHORUS
SOLO: D G D G A
CHORUS (end on Bm)
I got the [G]lowdown on the [D]high life but [A]still here I [D]am
INTRO out
