High Note

[Verse 1]
There were all of those things you weren't supposed to do
Yes, and my, my, my, my, my, my, my, they were talking to you
There were all of those words that you shouldn't've said
Like a dagger thrown, carry weight of lead

[Chorus]
Livin' on the high note, livin' on the high note
Livin' on the high note

[Verse 2]
Listen, now that it's known and the way has been shown
Guessing my, my, my, my, my, my, my, how you have grown
Gather all of the rain and every ounce of the pain
Wash the dirt and dust on down the drain

[Chorus]
And get to livin' on the high note, livin' on the high note
Livin' on the high note
Livin' on the high note, livin' on the high note
Livin' on the high note

[Bridge]
And if you gotta sink low
Sometimes, the way to go
Keep your head up, head up, Joe
Looked over at Dave (Looked over at Dave)
He was thinkin' he had it made
Dave looked over at Paul (Looked on over at Paul)
He was thinkin' he had it all
And Paul looked over at Steve (Looked over at Steve)
Who's steadily moving toward what he believes

[Chorus]
He was livin' on the high note, livin' on the high note
Livin' on the high note
He was livin' on the high note, livin' on the high note
Livin' on the high note
Livin' on the high note, livin' on the high note
Livin' on the high note
Livin' on the high note, livin' on the high note
Livin' on the high note
