...TOO HIGH... by Stevie Wonder

--------------.................

*from 'Innervisions' (1973)*

Intro: (Low 'E' pedal)

[Am9]

Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo,

[Am/G#]

Doo doo doo-doo doo doo-doo,

[Am/G] [Am/F#] [Am/F] [Am/E]

Doo-doo doo-doo doo doo.

[Am9]

Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo,

[Am/G#]

Doo doo doo-doo doo doo-doo,

[Am/G] [Am/F#] [Am/F] [Am/E]

Doo-doo doo-doo doo doo.

Chorus 1:

[F#maj7b5] [Emaj7b5] [Dmaj7b5] [Cmaj7b5]

I'm too high, I'm too high,

[Bbmaj7b5] E7#9#5 [Am9]

But I ain't touched the sky.

[F#maj7b5] [Emaj7b5] [Dmaj7b5] [Cmaj7b5]

I'm too high, I'm too high,

[Bbmaj7b5] E7#9#5 [Am9]

But I ain't touched the sky.

Verse 1:

[Am9]

She's a girl in a dream;

[C#m7] [F#m7] [D/E] [Am9]

She sees a four eyed cartoon monster on the TV screen.

[C#m7] [F#m7] [D/E]

She takes a-nother puff and says; "it's a crazy scene,

[Bbmaj7/C] [Eb9#11]

That red is green, and she's a tange-rine.

Chorus 2:

[F#maj7b5] [Emaj7b5] [Dmaj7b5] [Cmaj7b5]

I'm too high, I'm too high,

[Bbmaj7b5] E7#9#5 [Am9]

But I ain't left the ground.

[F#maj7b5] [Emaj7b5] [Dmaj7b5] [Cmaj7b5]

I'm too high, I'm too high,

[Bbmaj7b5] E7#9#5 [Am9]

I hope I never, ever come down.

Verse 2:

[Am9]

She's the girl in her life,

[C#m7] [F#m7] [D/E] [Am9]

But her world's a super-ficial para-dise.

[C#m7] [F#m7] [D/E]

She had a chance to make it big, more than once or twice,

[Bbmaj7/C] [Eb9#11]

But no dice; she wasn't very nice.

Solo:

[Am9] [E]

Break:

[Am9]

Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo,

[Am/G#]

Doo doo doo-doo doo doo-doo,

[Am/G] [Am/F#] [Am/F] [Am/E]

Doo-doo doo-doo doo doo.

[Am9]

Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo,

[Am/G#]

Doo doo doo-doo doo doo-doo,

[Am/G] [Am/F#] [Am/F] [Am/E]

Doo-doo doo-doo doo doo.

Chorus 3:

[F#maj7b5] [Emaj7b5] [Dmaj7b5] [Cmaj7b5]

I'm too high, I'm too high,

[Bbmaj7b5] E7#9#5 [Am9]

I can't ever touch the sky.

[F#maj7b5] [Emaj7b5] [Dmaj7b5] [Cmaj7b5]

I'm too high, I'm too high,

[Bbmaj7b5] E7#9#5 [Am9]

I feel like I'm a-bout to die.

Verse 3:

[Am9]

She's a girl of the past,

[C#m7] [F#m7] [D/E] [Am9]

I guess that I got to her at last.

[C#m7] [F#m7] [D/E] [Am9]

A did you hear the news a-bout the girl to-day?

[Bbmaj7/C] [Eb9]

She passed a-way... what did her friend say?

Interlude:

[Bbm9] [Bm9] [Cm9] [Bm9] [Bbm9] [Am9]

They said she's...

Chorus 4:

[F#maj7b5] [Emaj7b5] [Dmaj7b5] [Cmaj7b5]

I'm too high, I'm too high,

[Bbmaj7b5] E7#9#5 [Amaj7b5] E7#9#5 [Eb9b5] [D9]

Can't hang a-round, any-way..

Coda: (Funky)

[D9] [D/E] [C#/E] [C/E] [E7#9]

Outro:

[Am9]

Doo-doo doo doo doo doo-doo, doo doo doo-doo doo doo-doo,

Doo... doo... doo... doo... doo... doo... doo...
