Key:
Bb Well I stumbled in the darkness
Bb I'm lost and alone
Bb Though I said I'd go before us
Bb Gm And show the way back home
Gm Eb Bb There a light up ahead
Bb Eb /D I can't hold on very long
Bb F/A Forgive me pretty baby but I
Bb always take the long way home VERSE 2:
Bb Money's just something you throw
Bb Off the back of a train
Bb Got a head full of lightning
Bb Gm A hat full of rain
Continues after the ad
Gm Eb Bb And I know that I said
Bb Eb /D I'd never do it again
Bb And I love you pretty baby but I
F/A Bb always take the long way home VERSE 3:
Bb I put food on the table
Bb And roof overhead
Bb But I'd trade it all tomorrow
Bb Gm For the highway instead
Gm Eb Watch your back, keep your eyes
F shut tight
Bb Your love's the only thing I've
Eb ever known
Eb/D Bb One thing for sure pretty baby I
F/A Bb always take the long way home BRIDGE:
F/A Bb Eb F mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm VERSE 4:
F Bb You know I love you baby
Bb More than the whole wide world
Bb You are my woman
Bb Gm I know you are my pearl
Gm Eb F Let's go out past the party lights
Bb Eb Where we can finally be alone
Eb/D Bb F/A Come with me and we can take the
Bb long way home
Bb Eb Bb Mm mm mmm, come with me, together
F/A Bb we can take the long way home
Bb Eb Bb Mm mm mmm, come with me, together
F/A Bb we can take the long way home
