[Verse 1]
G D Am
Unbothered is my middle name
G
Packed up the pawns and playing games
D Am
Though it wouldn't hurt for you to be ashamed
That I'm cleaning up the messes you've made
[Pre-Chorus]
D
I'm so above it all
Am
That I'm looking down on you
D
Are you feeling small?
C
That's not what I meant to do
[Chorus]
G
'Cause I'm taking the high road
D
If you want I'll drive you home, but
Am C
It's a long way down
G
From all the ways that I've grown
D
'Cause I'm so good at letting go
Am C
While you’re still on the ground
G D
I know that you could find your way eventually
Am C
Paying tolls and circling the same old streets
G
I'm taking the high road
D
Don't wanna leave you on your own
Am C
'Cause its a long way, its a long way down
[Verse 2]
G D Am
When I lay awake at night
G
Don't wish I was running through your mind
D Am
I'm over what I've been put through
I never think about it, do you?
[Pre-Chorus]
D
So glad that you never called
Am
'Cause I hate it when you need me
(When you need me, babe)
D
So glad that you didn't fall
C
I can't catch you from beneath me
[Chorus]
G
'Cause I'm taking the high road
D
If you want I'll drive you home, but
Am C
It's a long way down
G
From all the ways that I've grown
D
'Cause I'm so good at letting go
Am C
While you’re still on the ground
G D
I know that you could find your way eventually
Am C
Paying tolls and circling the same old streets
G
I'm taking the high road
D
Don't wanna leave you on your own
Am C
'Cause its a long way, its a long way
[Bridge]

Do-own, oh (oh, its a long way down)
G D Am C
Do-own, oh (oh, its a long way down)
[Chorus]
G
So I'm taking the high road
D
If you want I'll drive you home, but
Am C
It's a long way down
G
From all the ways that I've grown
D
'Cause I'm so good at letting go
Am C
While you’re still on the ground
G D
I know that you could find your way eventually
Am C
Paying tolls and circling the same old streets
G
I'm taking the high road
D
Don't wanna leave you on your own
Am C
'Cause its a long way, its a long way down
