The Long Way Home Chords

[Intro]
A
 
[Verse 1]
        A
Well, I stumbled in the darkness
I'm lost and alone
Though I said I'd go before us
                      F#m
And show the way back home
           D          E
Is there a light up ahead
  A                   D
I can't hold on very long
   A                          E/G#            E        A     N.C.
Forgive me pretty baby, but I always take the long way home
 
[Verse 2]
             A
Money's just something you throw
Off the back of a train
Got a handful of lightning
               F#m
A head full of rain
      D           E
And I know that I said
    A             D
I'd never do it again
      A                          E/G#            E        A
Oh, I love you sweet baby, but I always take the long way home
 
[Verse 3]
      A
I put food on the table
And a roof overhead
But I'd trade it all tomorrow
                  F#m
For the highway instead
           D                E
Watch your back if I should tell you
A                               D
Love's the only thing I've ever known
                A                  E                        A
One thing's for sure sweet baby, I always take the long way home

[Verse 4]
                     A
You know I love you, baby
More than the whole wide world
I'm your woman
                    F#m
You know you are my pearl
         D                  E
Let's go out past the party lights
A                  D
We can finally be alone
          A      E/G#            E        A
Come with me and we can take the long way home
D           A            E/G#            E        A
  Come with me, together we can take the long way home
D           A            E/G#            E        A
  Come with me, together we can take the long way home
