    verse: x6
    We can be the fastest we wanna be you dont own me
    the only kids running time were losing our sleep
    drinking 40s every night did you ask if im happy
    but were all sad and thats just fine were still living
    speeding down the 90 were too busy wasting our lives
    im sorry dont be mad at me but i cant think entirely unless im high

More Than Tabs

Hear every part, read it in the notation you prefer, and practise it at your own tempo

Audio Playback

Play the whole score back, or step through it note by note. Every track is synthesised from its own instrument, so a drum line sounds like drums and a piano part sounds like a piano.

Dual Notation

Switch any track between tablature, standard notation and note names — or show them stacked, aligned bar for bar. The same score, in whichever language you read fastest.

Practice Tools

Slow the tempo until a passage sits under your fingers, set the play range to loop the bar you keep missing, and mute the tracks you want to play yourself.

About This Score

Read it, hear it, and learn it — free, in the browser, with nothing to install.

High Life is a Guitar score arranged by paul.posadas.247563. Read it as tablature or as standard sheet music notation, play it back at any tempo, and practise it a bar at a time.

It is written for 1 track, 4/4 time and 200 BPM, tuned E A D G B E. The tempo is yours to change — slow it down to learn the shapes, then bring it back up to speed.
