The Long Road Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
We've walked the long road and [D]you've
worn it well
You stitched yourself up
when [G]you fell
Keep your [Em]memories in jars
Carry [A]secrets in scars
Beneath your shell
[D]

[Verse 2]
You've seen some good days,
and some bad ones too
You weave through fashion
and [G]trend[Em]
You've seen a sun rise
on an [A]ocean blue
You've seen it set [D]for

[Verse 3]
the dearest of friends
[G]
You found faith but [A]you,
chose to doubt [D]it
You found love but [Bm]you, left [Em]without it
And now you don't want, to
[A]talk about it
[D]

[Verse 4]
You travelled down through
foreign lands
Touched mountain tops and golden sand
Seen pyramids and temples
made of [G]stone
Keep [Em]seashells in a cashmere scarf
A [A]treasured book of photographs
In [D]every single one you
stand alone

[Verse 5]
You've seen [D]Vienna and the Berlin wall
As you watched the decades fall
The letters that you wrote
never made it home
[G]Your [Em]birthdays flew past like June
With [A]Christmas days in hotel rooms
And [D]new years eve with people

[Verse 6]
you don't know
[G]
You built friendships but [A]they,
sailed without [D]you
You never meant it and that's [Bm]why,
they doubt [Em]you
They don't [A]ever talk about you
[D]

[Verse 7]
You're [Em]older than you used to be
[A]The mirror weaves a tapestry
Of [D]lines that dance and [A]shimmer
'round [Bm]your eyes
[Em]You stare back at a man,
forever [A]holding out his hand
As if the [F#]answer's going
to fall out of [Bm]the sky

[Verse 8]
But [Em]the penny never dropped
And [A]no man has ever stopped time flying by

[Outro 1]
[D]
