The Long Way Home - Norah Jones after Tom Waits (G)
Well I [G] stumbled in the [G] darkness
I'm [G] lost and [G] alone [G]
Though I said I'd go [G] before us [G]
And [G] show the way back [Em] home [Em]
There's a [C] light up [D] ahead
I [G] can't hold onto very [C] long [C]
For [G] give me pretty baby but I
[D] always take the long way [G] home [n.c.]
Money's just [G] something you [G] throw
Off the [G] back of a [G] train [G]
Got a handful of [G] lightening V
A [G] hat full of [Em] rain [Em]
And I [C] know that I [D] said
I'd [G] never do it [C] again [C]
And I [G] love you sweet baby but I
[D] always take the long way [G] home [n.c.]
I put [G] food on the [G] table
And [G] roof over [G] -head
[g] But I'd trade it all [G] tomor -row [G]
For the [G] highway [Em] instead [Em]
Watch your [C] back if I should [D] tell
your [G] love is the only thing I've ever [C] known [C]
One [G] thing for sure sweet baby I
[D] always take the long way [G] home [n.c.]
instrumental verses
You know I [G] love you [G] baby [G]
More than the whole wide [G] world [G]
I'm your [G] woman [G]
you [G] know you are my [Em] pearl [Em]
so let's go [C] out past the party [D] lights
Where [C] we can finally be [C] alone
[OUTRO]
Come with [G] me and
[D] we can take the long way [G] home [C]
Come with [G] me, together
[D] we can take the long way [G] home [C]
Come with [G] me, together
[D] we can take the long way [G] home [C]
[G] [D] [G] [n.c.]
