[Verse 1]
Eb                    Bb
So you think you're a Romeo,
F                   C
Playing a part in a picture-show.
         Bb             F        C
Take the long way home, take the long way home.
Eb                            Bb
'Cause you're the joke of the neighborhood,
F                             C
Why should you care if you're feeling good.
         Bb             F        C
Take the long way home, take the long way home.

But there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery,

All the greenery, is comin' down, boy.

Oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice.

Eb                       Bb
When lonely days turn to lonely nights,

You take a trip to the city lights.
             Bb             F        C
And take the long way home, take the long way home.
Eb                     Bb
You never see what you want to see,
F                      C
Forever playing to the gallery.
             Bb             F        C
You take the long way home, take the long way home.

Does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe?
       F          Dm         Bb    F
Oh, it has to be, for you to grow, boy.
G                         Em7                    Am               Am7
When you look through the years and see what you could have been,
             F                 Dm       Bb  F    G
Oh, what you  might have been, if you'd had more time.

You took the long way home, you took the long way home. (repeat & fade)
