Sir Sly - High Chords

[Intro]
D-A#-G-F-C 2x

[Verse 1]
D                        A#
I’ve been smoking on the peace pipe
G                     F             C
I’ve been wondering just what would peace be like
D                      A#
I’ve been staring into headlights
G                   F          C
Swallow me whole, finding my peace of mind
D                            A#
I’m just trying to seize the moment
G                          F                       C
Trying to love the little things, even if they’re hard to love
G                    A#
A monument to love unspoken
G                    F            C
Carved into stone “Unwilling to come undone”

[Chorus 1]
D                       A#
It feels good to be running from the devil
G                       F           C
Another breath and I’m up another level
D                    A# 
It feels good to be up above the clouds
G                       F              C
It feels good for the first time in a long time now

D A# G F C 2x

[Verse 2]
D                  A#
I remember back in Oakland
G                     F              C
I was lying there in rapture on the bathroom floor
D                A# 
Moving hotel to hotel
G                     F            C
Out on the road, no idea really what’s in store
D                       A#
Light it up just like a flashlight
G                     F                 C
Let it shine, let it rise just like a foreign sun
D                     A#
Turn it over and it’s capsized
G                                F          C
It’s finally done, the battle's lost yet I feel I’ve won

[Chorus 1]
D                       A#
It feels good to be running from the devil
G                       F           C
Another breath and I’m up another level
D                    A# 
It feels good to be up above the clouds
G                       F              C
It feels good for the first time in a long time now

D A#

[Post-Chorus]
G                      F               C

D         A#        
 
G          F         C
 It feels good to be me

[Chorus 2]
D             A#
I’m high, staring at the ceiling
G                       F          C
Sending my love, what a wonderful feeling
D                A#        
What comes next, I see a light
G                  F          C
I’m along for the ride as I’m taking flight

D             A#
I’m high, staring at the ceiling
G                       F          C
Sending my love, what a wonderful feeling
D                A#        
What comes next, I see a light
G                  F          C
I’m along for the ride as I’m taking flight

It feels good to be running from the devil
G                       F           C
Another breath and I’m up another level
D                    A# 
It feels good to be up above the clouds
                                   
It feels good for the first time in a long time now

[Post-Chorus]
D          A#

G                     F                C

D          A#

G                     F               C
It feels good for the first time in a while I’m free

[Chorus 2]
D             A#
I’m high, staring at the ceiling
G                       F          C
Sending my love, what a wonderful feeling
