Take The Long Way Home
intro: Eb__Bb___C___Eb___Bb___C___Eb___Bb___C___ x2
Eb so you think you're a Bb romeo
F Playing a part in a C picture-show.
Take the Bb long way home, F take the C long way home
Eb 'Cause you're the joke of the Bb neighborhood,
F Why should you care if you're C feeling good
Take the Bb long way home, F take the C long way home.
Em But there are times that you Em7 feel you're part of the Am scenery, Am7
All the F greenery, Dm is comin' Bb down,F boy.
G And then your wife seems to Em7 think you're part of the Am furniture, Am7
Oh, it's pe- F culiar, Dm she used to Bb be F so G nice.
Eb When lonely days turn to Bb lonely nights,
F You take a trip to the C city lights.
And take the Bb long way home, F take the C long way home.
Eb You never see what you Bb want to see,
F Forever playing to the C gallery.
You take the Bb long way home, F take the C long way home.
Em And when you're up on the Em7 stage, it's so un- Am believable, Am7
Unfor- F gettable,Dm how they a- Bb dore F you,
G But then your wife seems to Em7 think you're losing your Am sanity, Am7
Oh, cal- F amity, is there Bb no F way G out?
solo: Intro...
[Em] Does it feel that your [Em7] life's become a cat- [Am] astrophe? [Am7]
Oh, it [F] has to be, [Dm] for you to [Bb] grow, [F] boy.
[G] When you look through the [Em7] years and see what you [Am] could have been, [Am7]
Oh, what you [F] might have been, [Dm] if you'd [Bb] had [F] more [G] time.
[Eb] So, when the day comes to [Bb] settle down,
[F] Who's to blame if you're [C] not around?
You took the [Bb] long way home, [F] you took the [C] long way home,
You took the [Bb] long way home, [F] you took the [C] long way home. (repeat & fade)
