LONG WAY HOME TOM WAITS Capo 1st Fret A Well I stumbled in the darkness, I'm lost and alone A F#m Though I said I'd go before us, and show the way back home F#m D A D D/C# There's a light up ahead, I can't hold on very long A E A Forgive me pretty baby but I always take the long way home Money's just something you throw Off the back of a train Got a head full of lightning, a hat full of rain And I know that I said I'd never do it again And I love you pretty baby but I always take the long way home A I put food on the table and roof overhead A F#m But I'd trade it all tomorrow for the highway instead F#m D E Watch your back, keep your eyes shut tight A D Your love's the only thing I've ever known D/C# A E A One thing for sure pretty baby I always take the long way home Bridge: E A D E mmm-mmm, mmm-mmm, mmm-mmm, mmm-mmm A You know I love you baby more than the whole wide world Bb F#m You are my woman, I know you are my pearl F#m D E Let's go out past the party lights A D Where we can finally be alone D/C# A E A Come with me and we can take the long way home D A E A Mm mm mmm, come with me, together we can take the long way home D A E A Mm mm mmm, come with me, together we can take the long way home D A E A ~ ***************************************************************************************** The above is solely MY INTERPRETATION of this great song, in a format aimed at learning guitarists.
