Lowdown on the Highlife
Otto/Howell/Bergsnes


INTRO: D  G  D  G

D                     G          D
He played guitar in a honky-tonk band
G             D       A
He drank Jack Daniels Black Label brand
           D                           G               D
He was the life of the party 'til they closed down the bar
           G         D          A        G
And in the eyes of a young boy, he was a star


CHORUS:
         D                 F#m      G               D
He'd say son don't you run down the roads that I've run
    D            F#m          G               A
And don't go and sing all the songs that I've sung
       Bm           A                G         C
'Cause this kind of livin' takes its toll on a man
             G             D       A            Bm                      
And thru the smoke and the neon, I saw it first hand

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



          G              D              A            D
I got the lowdown on the high life, but still here I 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)

          G              D             A            D
I got the lowdown on the high life but still here I am
