I'VE BEEN HIGH
chords by Chris Lawrence (mustang@islandnet.com)
Fade in on C
Verse:
Have you seen? Have not will travel
Have I missed the big reveal?
Do my eyes, do my eyes seem empty?
I've forgotten how this feels
Chorus:
I've been high, I've climbed so high
That light sometimes it washes over me
Have you been? Have done will travel
I fell down on my knees
Was I wrong? I don't know, don't answer.
I just needed to believe.
Repeat Chorus
bridge:
So I dive into a pool so cool and deep
that if I sink I sink and when I swim I fly so high.
What I want, what I really want is
Just to live my life on high.
And I know, I know you want the same
I can see it in your eyes.
Repeat Chorus
Washes over me
Close my eyes
So I can see
Make my make believe believe in me.
