[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]
Here there is no revelry
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
The sadness needs no leavening
[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
So loose your boots and sit yourself down
[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]
Deep inside the water tank
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
Over by the riverbank
[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
There I saw my little girl drown

[ch]Bm[/ch],
Call it a detour
[ch]C[/ch]
Ugly and impure
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
Save yourself
[ch]Em[/ch]

[ch]C[/ch]
Where is the life line
[ch]D[/ch]
Here on the highline
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
Save yourself

[ch]Em[/ch]

Riff x2

[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]
I came back here at 24
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
My friends all say what you're doing this for
[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
Well my father died and passed this shit to me
[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]
Rub my hands in turpentine
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
My prospect's now being undermined
[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
With bankers knocking daily at my door


[ch]Bm[/ch],
Call it a detour
[ch]C[/ch]
Ugly and impure
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
Save yourself
[ch]Em[/ch]

[ch]C[/ch]
Where is the life line
[ch]D[/ch]
Here on the highline
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
Save yourself

[ch]Em[/ch]

Bridge - [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] x2

Riff x4

[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]
Lost inside the peloton
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
With the Jerry Lewis telethon
[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
Ticking soft till I fall fast asleep
[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]
Slipped away with candlelight
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
Leather chaps and cattle drives
[ch]Em[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
This is not the life I meant to lead

[ch]Bm[/ch],
Call it a detour
[ch]C[/ch]
Ugly and impure
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
Save yourself
[ch]Em[/ch]

[ch]C[/ch]
Where is the life line
[ch]D[/ch]
Here on the highline
[ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]
Save yourself

[ch]Em[/ch]
