Long Way Home

C                          Dm       F
The other night I took the long way home
    G                  C
Out past the old schoolyard
C                          Dm  F
It's funny how you keep it all inside
G                  C
Dreams they do die hard

[Verse 2]
C                            Dm       F
I closed my eyes and I could see your face
G                 C
Somewhere back in time
C                          Dm    F
One summer night a million miles ago
G                 C
Back when you were mine

[Chorus]
C                             Dm           F
Say yes, say no, say that I'm grabbing at shadows
    G                        C
But don't carve the words in stone
C
I know it's late
              Dm        F
But can't you see I was only
G                   C
Taking the long way home

[Verse 3]
C                         Dm          F
Sometimes its easy to get all wrapped up
   G            C
In trying to be free
C                             Dm      F
And all those dreams I sailed away to find
     G                 C
Were right in front of me

[Chorus]
C                             Dm           F
Say yes, say no, say that I'm grabbing at shadows
    G                        C
But don't carve the words in stone
C
I know it's late
              Dm        F
But can't you see I was only
G                   C
Taking the long way home

[Bridge]
             Dm              G          C
Although the letters stopped many years ago
     Am            D              G
I'll show you even time could not keep this heart
     A
from letting go

[Verse 4]
D                          Em       G
The other night I took the long way home
    A                  D
Out past the old schoolyard
D                          Em    G
It's funny how you keep it all inside
A                  D
Dreams they do die hard

[Chorus]
D                             Em          G
Say yes, say no, say that I'm grabbing at shadows
    A                       D
But don't leave me here all alone
D
One of these days
             Em        G
You're gonna see I was only
A                   D
Taking the long way home

[Chorus]
D        Em  G
Say yes, say no
    A                       D  A
But don't leave me here all alone
D
One of these days
             Em        G
You're gonna see I was only
A                   D
Taking the long way home
