                          F      C
My soul went walkin' but I stayed here
                               F        C
Feel like I been workin' for a thousand years
                               F       C
Chippin' away at this chain of my own lies
                        F       C
Climbin' a wall a hundred miles high
       G                           Bb
Well I woke up this morning on the other side
C                          F
Yeah yeah this is the long goodbye
G                     Bb         | C | C F | C | C
Hey yeah this is the long goodbye

                         F        C
Same old faces it's  the same old town
                        F           C
What once was laughs is draggin' me now
                        F      C
Waitin' on rain hangin' on for love
                               F     C
Words of forgiveness from some God above
G                              Bb
Ain't no words of mercy comin' from on high 
C                       F
Yeah yeah just one long goodbye
G                     Bb         | C | C F | C | F
Hey yeah this is the long goodbye


Well I went to leave twenty years ago
      C                                       F
Since then I guess I been packin' kind of slow

Sure did like that admirin' touch
 C       Bb         G         C   | C | C F | C | C
Guess I liked it a little too much

                      F     C
The moon is high and here I am
                              F      C
Sittin' here with this hammer in my hand
                      F        C
One more drink oughta ease the pain
                      F          C
Starin' at that last link in the chain
           G                           Bb
Well let's raise our glass and let the hammer fly
C                             F
hey yeah this is the long goodbye
 G                    Bb
Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
C                            F
Kiss me baby and we're gonna fly
 G                    Bb
Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
C                             F
Yeah yeah this is the long goodbye
 G                    Bb

 G                     Bb
