G#m      B    F#                 E
Guess I needed sometime to get away
G#m            B
I needed some piece of mind
F#                           E
Some piece of mind that'll stay
G#m    B       F#                   E
So I thumbed it down to Sixth and L.A.
G#m       B      F#            E
Maybe a Greyhound could be my way
G#m         B
Police and Niggers, that's right
F#             E
Get out of my way
G#m            B
Don't need to buy none of your
F#             E
Gold chains today
I don't need no bracelets
Clamped in front of my back
Just need my ticket; 'til then
Won't you cut me some slack?

Chorus:
B               F#
You're one in a million
C#                     G#
Yeah, that's what you are
B               F#
You're one in a million, babe
C#                 G#
You're a shooting star
B                   F#
Maybe someday we'll see you
C#                  G#
Before you make us cry
B                     F#
You know we tried to reach you
C#                     D# C# G#
But you were much too high
          D# C# G#          D# C# G#
Much too high,    much too high,
          D# C# G#
Much too high,    yes, ow!

Immigrants and faggots
They make no sense to me
They come to our country
And think they'll do as they please
Like start some mini Iran,
Or spread some fuckin' disease
They talk so many goddamn ways
It's all Greek to me
Well some say I'm lazy
And others say that's just me
Some say I'm crazy
I guess I'll always be
But it's been such a long time
Since I knew right from wrong
It's all the means to an end, I
I keep it movin' along

Chorus

Radicals and Racists
Don't point your finger at me
I'm a small town white boy
Just tryin' to make ends meet
Don't need your religion
Don't watch that much T.V.
Just makin' my livin', baby
Well that's enough for me

Chorus

Much too high, much too high, much too high
Much too high, much too high, much too high
