[Verse 1]     
          E
Sensible, she said
B                   E
With a hand upon my head
        B                E
When we wheeled over the field
          B
Under the sky
        E             B  E
When I was 19, she was 21
       
[Chorus]
        B                     Em              B
We were high, low, high, low, high, low, high
                   E          B    B E B E B E
We were high, low, high, low, high
             
[Verse 2]
             E
Now the leper kneels and prays
    B                  E
For bright and future, airy days
B              E
As bandages have all decayed
    D#m    B       E
The sun is beating down
    B               E
And from the forest flies a bird
  B               E
A cardinal that's overheard and
B               E
Understood the leper's words
      B
And become his shocking crown
                               E
Is all the kind of things she'd say to me
      B            E
While crying on my shoulder
         B            E
And I am trying to console her
         
[Chorus]        
          B                     Em              B
But we're high, low, high, low, high, low, high
                         E
When you're high, you're low
            Bm
When you're high
