[Estrofa]AI was just a normal guy.ALife was just a nine to five.A EWith bills and pressure piled up to the sky.EShe never asked, she knew I'd been,Ehangin' with my wilder friends.E Alooking for another way to fly.AAnd three days straight was no big featAI'd get by on no food or sleepD BmAnd crazy, was becoming my new norm.AI'd pass out on the bedroom floor.E A GAnd sleep right through the calm before the storm.[Estribillo]DMy life was just an old routine.E A G DEveryday the same damn thing, I couldn't even tell I was alive.AI tell you. The high cost of living,E Aain't nothin' like the cost of living high.[Estrofa]AThat southern baptist parking lot.AWas where I'd go and smoke my pot.A ESit there in my pick-up truck and pray.EAnd stareing at that giant cross.EJust reminded me that I was lost.E AAnd it just never seemed to point the way.AAs soon as Jesus turned his back.AI'd find my way across the tracks.D BmLookin' just to score another deal.AWith my back against that damn eight ball.E A GI didn't have to think or talk or feel.[Estribillo]DMy life was just an old routine.E A G DEveryday the same damn thing, I couldn't even tell I was alive.AI tell you. The high cost of living,E Aain't nothin' like the cost of living high.[Estrofa]AMy whole life went through my head.ALaying in that hotel bed.A EWatchin' as the cops kicked in the door.EI had a job and a piece of land.EAnd my sweet wife, was my best friend.E ABut I traded that for cocaine and a whore.AWith my new found sobriety.AI've got the time to sit and think.D BmOf all the things I had, and threw away.AThis prison is much colder than that,E A Gone that I was locked up in just yesterday.[Estribillo]DMy life was just an old routine.E A G DEveryday the same damn thing, I couldn't even tell I was alive.AI tell you. The high cost of living,E Aain't nothin' like the cost of living high.
