You’re the life of the party, everybody’s host

Still you need somewhere you can hide

All your good-time friends and your fair-weather has-beens
C G
Lord knows….they’re just along for the ride
E7 Am
You think you’re a survivor, but boy you better think twice
G Dm (2 beats) > D
No one rides for nothing, so step up and pay the price
CHORUS
F C G Am
It’s the high cost of low living
F C G Dm Am
Ain’t it high time you turned yourself around
F C G Am
Yeah, the high cost of low living
Eb F C
Bound to put you six feet in the ground
G Dm Am
So many here who love you still you just can’t tell
C G
The real ones from those that drop your name
Dm Am
All the while behind your back they rip the flesh right from
your bones
C G
you should know by now we’re all fair game
E7 Am
You been chasing each dream with whiskey From here to Tokyo
G Dm D
Using up all your real friends No places left to go
