[Intro]
| G Gadd11 | G Gadd11 | G Gadd11 | G Gadd11 |
[Verse 1]
G Gadd11 G G7 C C2 C
When I roll into this town, first thing I wanna do is leave
D7 D7 G Gadd11
With my foot heavy on the gas, I drive so fast I gotta watch my speed
G Gmaj7 G7
The gossips' hands are full of time and somehow it became a crime
C C/B Am7
To have the nerve to run off chasing dreams
D Dadd11 D7 G Gadd11 G
Yeah when I roll into this town the first thing I wanna do is leave
Gadd11
[Verse 2]
G Gadd11 G G7 C C2 C Caug
Before you even say hello, all I wanna do is say goodbye
D7 D7 G Gadd11
Before you even have a chance to think you glance "I miss you" in my eyes
G G7
‘Cause you've been standing still the whole time that I've learned to crash and burn
C C/B Am7
And pick myself back up again and try
D Dadd11 D7 G Gadd11 G G7
So before you even say hello, all I wanna do is say goodbye
[Chorus]
C D G
And it's a long way back home
Am Em C C2
A long way back home
C D Em
And it won't let me go
Am Em C D7
‘Cause it's a long way back home
[Guitar solo]
| G Gadd11 | G G7 | C C2 | C |
| D7 | D7 |
[Verse 3]
G Gadd11 G G7 C C2 C
When I reach my hotel room, first thing I'm gonna do is cry
D7 D7 G Gadd11
With no one there to sympathize, no prying eyes, I'll pour a glass of wine
G G7
And drink a toast to nights alone and endless highways that I roam
C C/B Am7
Looking for that home I'll never find
D Dadd111 D7 G Gadd11 G7
Yeah when I reach my hotel room, first thing I'm gonna do is cry
[Chorus]
C D G
And it's a long way back home
Am Em C C2
A long way back home
C D Em
And it won't let me go
Am Em C D7
‘Cause it's a long way back home
[Outro]
G Gadd11 G G7 C
When I roll into this town, first thing I'm gonna do is leave
