You Can Only Get So High Cifras

You Can Only Get So High - Richie Sambora
 
Tune the guitar Half-Step Down
 
Verse 1:
Am                           F
   Hard time waking up this morning
C                              G
   Closed the blinds so I can see 
Am                             F
   First light came without a warning 
            C                                   G
   And the sunrise scared the daylights out of me 
 
Verse 2:
   Downed seven Tylenols for breakfast
   Chased it down with last night's cloudy memory
   Empty bottle preach the gospel
   Another shot ain't coming close to saving me
                    C   G   Am   F
   Close to saving me 
 
Chorus:
                 C
   You can only get so high 
                   G
   Then you gotta come down 
                    Am
   Twisted in the clouds just like a kite 
                      F
   Fighting just to stay up in the sky 
                 C
   Flying in a freefall 
                               G
   Before you know it is your last call 
             Am                  Am/G         D
   I'll take one more drink and two packs of lights
                      Dm                    G
   Drowning with the demons in disguise
                 C            Am
   You can only get so high 
                 C            Am
   You can only get so high 
 
Verse 3:
   Life was one long after party
   My welcome was too long of a stay
   The good times sing the same old story
   But they leave it out how the bill is getting paid
 
Verse 4:
   You keep yourself 10 second chances
   Say I ain't quitting, I'm just splitting for a while
   Ended like some many bad romances
   One more victory lap before you say goodbye
 
Chorus;
 
Bridge:
   G                           Am
   Endless limitations that I keep on gettin' by
      F                                    D
   I guess I'll start by sitting down with me, myself and I 
       G                 E7            Am          D
   I think it's best to leave my desperation to decide
 
Chorus;
 
Chorus 2:
   You can only get so high
   Till you bottom out and breakdown
   You can only hurt so many times
   Before the truth falls from the lies
   Flying in a freefall
   Just before you hit the last wall
   You're only getting one more chance and one last goodbye
   It took a lifetime to realize
   You can only get so high
   You can only get so high
   Then you got a come down
   Then you got a come down
