I Can't Get High Enough

[Intro] [strummed acoustic guitar] [Chorus] [male tenor vocals enter] I've tried it all and it ain't no use Painting this town red, still leaves me blue No, I don't know what my poor heart can do 'Cause I can't get high enough to get over you [Verse 1] Another pretty woman, a dance or two Another empty bottle I'm wading through No, I don't know what I'm doing wrong 'Cause I'm living the high life wine, women and song [Verse 2] Your memory's like a mountain standing in my way I can't get around, there ain't no way I've tried to get high enough but it won't do 'Cause there ain't no way of getting over you [Chorus] And I've tried it all and it ain't no use Painting this town red, still leaves me blue No, I don't know what my poor heart can do 'Cause I can't get high enough to get over you [Verse 3] I was on a straight path to the top And you got in my way and I couldn't stop Now I find I've lost my mind, and I blame you 'Cause there ain't no way of getting over you [Chorus] And I've tried it all and it ain't no use Painting this town red, still leaves me blue No, I don't know what my poor heart can do 'Cause I can't get high enough to get over you No, I can't get high enough to get over you [guitar strumming fades]
