Long Way Home

Intro G C D Em D Em G G It's a long way home C He couldn't see too well D Em His left eye was shot out in the war D And the other one was getting Em So tired of watching Bm All of the time Bm C It's hard enough keep awake and alive G On this cold day G As far as he knows C It's gonna take four days D Em For the man to catch up with the mile D And there's nothing that Em Could ever be smiling Bm C Quite like death at the door Bm C He never thought that he would be poor G Like that again Am D Oooh Em He had a day dream Em And a real need for a cigarette Am D Oooh G The birds are falling B And it will dark soon C D Em So he told his boots... to carry on ( G C D Em G ) G On a granite stone C He didn't sleep too well D He had her name at the edge Em Of his tongue D He made love to this memory Em G It stung him in the dark G C Morning came and it ate his heart D Em And the sun shot holes in his mind D Oh but the thunder Em Of the river behind him B C It brought him up to his knees Bm C And he prayed hard enough to say please G Against his odds Am D Oooh Em He had a day dream Em And a real need for a cigarette Am D Oooh G The moon is calling B And it will be dark soon C D Em So he told his boots... To carry on
