[Am9] Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo,

Chorus 1:
I'm [F#maj7b5]too [Emaj7b5]high, I'm [Dmaj7b5]too [Cmaj7b5]high,
[A#maj7b5] But I ain't [E7#9#5]touched the [Am9]sky.
I'm [F#maj7b5]too [Emaj7b5]high, I'm [Dmaj7b5]too [Cmaj7b5]high,
[A#maj7b5] But I ain't [E7#9#5]touched the [Am9]sky.
Verse 1:
[Am9] She's a girl in a dream;
She sees a [C#m7]four eyed cartoon [F#m7]monster on the T.V [D/E]screen.[Am9]
She takes a-[C#m7]nother puff and [F#m7]says; "it's a [D/E]crazy [Am9]scene,
That red is [A#maj7/C]green, and she's a tange-[D#9#11]rine.
Chorus 2:
I'm [F#maj7b5]too [Emaj7b5]high, I'm [Dmaj7b5]too [Cmaj7b5]high,
[A#maj7b5] But I ain't [E7#9#5]left the [Am9]ground.
I'm [F#maj7b5]too [Emaj7b5]high, I'm [Dmaj7b5]too [Cmaj7b5]high,
[A#maj7b5] I hope I never, [E7#9#5]ever come [Am9]down.
Verse 2:
[Am9] She's the girl in her life,
But her [C#m7]world's a super-[F#m7]ficial [D/E]para-[Am9]dise.
She had a [C#m7]chance to make it [F#m7]big, more than [D/E]once or [Am9]twice,
But no [A#maj7/C]dice; she wasn't very [D#9#11]nice.

I'm [F#maj7b5]too [Emaj7b5]high, I'm [Dmaj7b5]too [Cmaj7b5]high,
I [A#maj7b5]feel like I'm a-[E7#9#5]bout to [Am9]die.
Verse 3:
[Am9] She's a girl of the past,
I [C#m7]guess that I got [F#m7]to her [D/E]at [Am9]last.
