(Intro.)
|(C) / / / |(G) / / / |(D) / / / |(D) / / / | x 2

(Verse 1)
When you (D)see me out tonight tearing up the prome-(G)nade
(G)People stop and step aside so I can move a-(D)long
Is it (D)just because they're friendly or the fact that I am (G) gone
(G)Stepping over lines of the paths they travel (D) on?

(Chorus)
Living on the (C)high side
(G) Better keep it on the (D)low down
Get to feeling (C)just right
(G) Think I’ll have to go and (D)sit down

(Verse 2)
Do you (D)reckon that they notice?
Do you think that they be-(G)lieve?
I've been (G)gettin into meanness on the dark end of the (D)street
Do my (D)eyes tell my condition? Does my breath show (G)where I've been?
Am I (G)talking any louder than the comp’ny that I'm (D)in
 
 (Chorus)
Living on the (C )high side (G)
(G) Better keep it on the (D)low down
Get to feeling (C)just right
(G) Think I’ll have to go and (D)sit down
 
(Solo) 
C G D x2

(Bridge)
(A)Sweating like a preacher in the presence of the Lord
(G)Shaking like a leaf in the middle of a storm
(D)Jawin' my bone trying to make you see (G)
I (A)wouldn't much fret if my friends were all here
But there's (G)people in the corner and they're starting to stare
(D)Having a ball poking fun at (G)me

(Chorus)
Living on the (C)high side (G)
(G) Better keep it on the (D)low down
Get to feeling (C)just right (G)
(G) Think I’ll have to go and (D)sit down
Living on the (C)high side / / / |(G) / / / |(D) / / / |(D) /
Straighten up and try to (C)act right (G)
Keep it on the (D)lowdown
