Eb Bb
So you think your a romeo
F C
Taking part in a picture show
Bb Bbsus2
Take the long way home
Csus2 C (no 3rd)
Take the long way home
Eb Bb
If your the joke of the neighborhood
F C
Why should you care if your feeling good
Bb Bbsus2
Take the long way home
Csus2 C (no 3rd)
Take the long way home
(chorus)
G Em F
There are times that you feel your part of the scenery
C F Dm Bb F G
O, the greenery, coming down boy
G Em F
And your wife seems to think your part of the furniture
C F Dm Bb F G
O, its peculiar, she used to be so nice
Eb Bb
When lonely days turn to lonely nights
F C
You take a trip to the city lights
Bb Bbsus2
And take the long way home
Csus2 C (no 3rd)
Take the long way home
Eb Bb
You never see what you want to see
F C
Forever playing to the gallery
Bb Bbsus2
You take the long way home
Csus2 C (no 3rd)
Take the long way home
G Em F
And when youre up on the stage, its so unbelievable,
C F Dm Bb F G
Unforgettable, how they adore you,
G Em F
But then your wife seems to think youre losing your sanity,
C F Dm Bb F G
Oh, calamity, is there no way out?
Does it feel that you lifes become a catastrophe?
Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy.
When you look through the years and see what you could
Have been oh, what might have been,
If youd had more time.
So, when the day comes to settle down,
Whos to blame if youre not around?
You took the long way home
You took the long way home
