Story behind the song
Natural High is a road-worn rock anthem that captures the soul of American music through the lens of a working guitarist chasing sound, freedom, and redemption. Moving from Los Angeles to Memphis to New Orleans, the song celebrates the cities that shaped rock, blues, and Southern rhythmeach stop adding grit, history, and heart to the journey.
At its core, Natural High is about the unstoppable rush of live musicthe kind of high that comes not from escape, but from connection. Even heartbreak fades in the presence of rhythm, as the narrator finds healing in sound, strings, and stage lights. The recurring chorus reinforces music as a lifeline: raw, honest, and forever dependable.
Lyrics
Playing this old guitar in L.A
Where the people know rock n roll
Yeah It’s good to be in L.A
Where the music just hits your soul
Playing this old guitar in Memphis
Where the lights just hit your eyes
Yeah It’s good to be in Memphis
You know, a southern band really tries
Lost in the rhythm
I’m getting high off the sound
This natural high that I can’t live without
The audio adrenaline will never let you down
She told me goodbye but it’s alright now
Playing this old guitar in New Orleans
Where they lost everything they had
Yeah It’s good to be in New Orleans
We still got Mardi Gras
And it ain’t so bad
Lost in the rhythm
I’m getting high off the sound
This natural high that I can’t live without
The audio adrenaline will never let you down
She told me goodbye but it’s alright now
Lost in the rhythm
I’m getting high off the sound
This natural high that I can’t live without
The audio adrenaline will never let you down
She told me goodbye but it’s alright now
