Long Way Home

Intro: Cm G# Cm G# Cm G# Cm Fm D#

Verse 1
D#                       G#    Bb
I am taking the long way home
                 Cm          G#    Gm  Bb
I really messed up and I'm late again
         D#
And my belly aches from fear
                 G#
How, when and where?
           Bb         Cm
How can keys just disappear?
          G#               D#    Bb
I would die to have them here again

Pre-Chorus 1
Fm                             Gm
All the luck in the world, strength and magic
          G#             Bb
Is not enough for a fate so tragic
Cm           Fm
Every piece of that heart
Gm                Dm          Cm      G#
Afraid to go in just to fall apart

Chorus
D#          Bb
On a rainy day
           G#                  Bb
Home is where you're feeling safe
      Cm                   G#   Bb
And where you always feel ok to stay
         D#    Bb                   G#
And a lovely day you'll be on your way
                 Bb      Cm
To build this perfect family
             G#                 Bb       D#
Now do you think that's gonna happen,
    Cm
-to me?

Verse 2
D#                    Gm
I am taking the long way
       G#         Bb
And I walk real slow
              Cm              G#
And I don't mind that it's raining
                   Bb
Because then the tears won't seem to show
         D#             Gm                G#
And I wonder what the world would really say
        Bb                Cm
If I simply disappeared today
G#                 Bb
I guess no one would notice anyway

Pre-Chorus 2
Fm                           Gm
All the luck in the world strength and magic
G#            Bb
Is not enough to heal, it's tragic
Cm          Fm
Every part of that heart
Gm      G#
-Afraid

Chorus
        D#       Bb
And on a rainy day
      G#                  Bb
Home is where you're feeling safe
       Cm          G#     Bb
Where you always feel ok to stay
    D#     Bb                   G#
And a lovely day you'll be on your way
           Bb        Cm
To build this perfect family
           G#             Bb
What do you think is gonna happen,
   Cm
-to me?

And where I never feel ok to stay

And a lovely day I'll be on my way
      Bb             Cm
To crash a perfect family
G#                       Bb  Cm   Bb  Cm
And all that I can do is cry
