Bm                        A
Sitting in the backseat, dead heat summer
Em                          G
Staring at the ground in a lucid light
Bm                      A
I can feel a heartbeat built like thunder
Em                          G
Running round my head in a holy fire
Bm                  A
Open up the doors, let me feel that zephyr
Em                 G
Freshen up the air underneath the streets
Bm                           A             Em
Now I'm locking eyes with a silent stranger
                  G
Don't run, don't hide

    Bm               D           Em               G
And I can feel the static rising up and out your mouth
             Bm              D
We're making waves of conversation
       Em          G
Got a rush of energy

Chorus:
       Bm           A             Em
'Cause I'm getting high, getting high
             G
I'm getting high on humans
Bm           A             Em
I'm getting high, getting high
             G
I'm getting high on humans

Elevate the headstrong dead long halo
Caught up in our skin, gotta fight the grind
I can make your day glow sun to rainbow
Colour in your step, let me lose your mind
Animate the air with a stone cold question
Do you have the time? Do you hate your life?
Now I'm locking eyes with a silent stranger
Don't run, don't hide

And I can feel the static rising up
and out your mouth
We're making waves of conversation
Got a rush of energy

Chorus:
'Cause I'm getting high, getting high
I'm getting high on humans
I'm getting high, getting high
I'm getting high on humans
Every time I meet your eyes,
I can feel life come alive
And I'm getting high, getting high
I'm getting high on humans

Bm          D
We ride up, we slide up
A             G
We won't stop, we won't stop
Bm          D
We ride up, we slide up
A              G
We won't stop, no, we won't stop
Bm          D
We ride up, we slide up
A             G
We won't stop lighting our minds up
Bm          D
We ride up, we slide up
A             G
We won't stop lighting our minds up

Chorus:
'Cause I'm getting high, getting high
I'm getting high on humans
I'm getting high, getting high
I'm getting high on humans
Every time I meet your eyes,
I can feel life come alive
And I'm getting high, getting high
I'm getting high on humans

(I'm getting high, getting high,
getting high on humans)
(I'm getting high, getting high,
getting high on humans)
Cause I'm getting, getting high on humans
