[Intro]
Cm D# A# G#
D# A# G#
 
[Verse]
D#         A#                      G#
You always know where you can find me
D#                    A#              G#
I’m up here where the air is pure and true
D#                A#               G#
The cleverness of words just binds me
D#         A#                  G#
They won’t help me to get over you
 
[Chorus]
Cm                D#
And maybe you got lost at the five ways
A#           Gm
Took a wrong turn just like always
Cm              Dm                A#
Or did you just take the long way home?

D# A# G#
 
[Verse]
D#                   A#               G#
I hear the wind blow through the pine trees
D#          A#                      G#
I watch the frozen lights come into view
D#        A#                     G#
The stars above they don’t align me
D#        A#                   G#
They only shine a dim light on you
 
[Chorus]
Cm                D#
And maybe you got lost at the five ways
A#           Gm
Took a wrong turn just like always
Cm              Dm                A#
Or did you just take the long way home?

D# A# G#
 
[Verse]
D#      A#                            G#
I wanna hear you walk up right behind me
D#              A#                    G#
But the dawn is come and it’s done me in
Cm           D#
And could it be that you don’t love me
A#        Gm
For who I am or what I could be
Cm               Dm                      A#
And from where I am it’s such a long way down
