This song was recorded in C, however when performed live, it's played in G verse 1 intro ,,,, If anyone rises at 6.31 and fakes all day that they're having their fun, they never did get it right, since they got it so low, to anyone drinking the morning away the afternoon will prove a mistake, they never will get it right now they've got it so low chorus and we laugh, and we drink, and we teach ourselves not to think, we never did get it right, since we got it so low verse 2 To all of the people who bleed by your side, and split from their tongues, and their knives, they never will get a life now they've got it so low verse 3 To all of the faces that freeze for you there, in your memory when you try not care, they never disappear down the slow road middle eight cornfields, and pigtails, and fish in the stream the night where the boys stole a billion dollar dream, from the high jinx school for girls, down the road verse 4 stories are smoke trails and some may be true, you listen to me, oh i'm talking you, i hope you never fall from grace if you get it so low
