Verse 1:

E                A
Look it's almost morning
E                B
Baby turn your collar up
E                  A
There ain't nobody dancing
          E                           B
Who looks better down and out on their luck
E                               A
Run away to a little place with me
                                  E
Where everybody thinks we're royalty
                             B
Think of how easy life could be
Eh eh
E                              A
Run away to a place that isn't far
                          E
Forget the jet, call us a car
                           B
It doesn't matter where we are

Chorus:

E         A
Won't you carry me away
      E                B
After endless ballroom dreams
E        A
With you starting every day
         E         B
We'll be high society
            E                      A
We'll drink Chardonnay through the day

Cause we say so
E                      B
A silk lapel suits you well baby you know
E        A
With you each and every day
         E         B
We'll be high society


Verse 2:

E                       A
You never sleep late on Sunday
             E                    B
Cause that's how it's done in Monaco
E                        A
Except for when you came stateside
    E                         B
You never let me sleep late alone
      E                              A
Let's sneak into a country club and when
                            E
We can't get in slip them a ten
                         B
Isn't it fun to play pretend?
Eh eh
E                              A
Find somebody else that we can blame
                                       E
For all the things we do that cause us pain
                              B
Keep keeping on like life's a game


Chorus:

E         A
Won't you carry me away
      E                B
After endless ballroom dreams
E        A
With you starting every day
         E         B
We'll be high society
            E                      A
We'll drink Chardonnay through the day

Cause we say so
E                      B
A silk lapel suits you well baby you know
E        A
With you each and every day
         E         B
We'll be high society


Bridge:

A                  B
There ain't nobody dancing
          A                            F#m
Who looks better down and out on their luck
A
It's in our blood

We're above the highest penthouse
B
Tell me the world is ours

We'll be high


Chorus:

E         A
Won't you carry me away
      E                B
After endless ballroom dreams
E        A
With you starting every day
         E         B
We'll be high society
            E                      A
We'll drink Chardonnay through the day

Cause we say so
E                      B
A silk lapel suits you well baby you know
E        A
With you each and every day
         E         B
We'll be high society
