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
D E A D
There's a light up ahead, I can't hold on any more
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 lightening - a handful 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
I put food on the table and a roof overhead
But I'd trade it all tomorrow for the highway instead
Watch your back if I should tell, love's the only thing I'd ever known
One thing for sure pretty baby, I always take the long way home
E D A D E
You know I love you baby more than the whole wide world
I'm your woman - I know you are my pearl
Let's go out past the party lights and we can finally be alone
A E A D
Come with me, and we can take the long way home
Come with me, together we can take the long way home
Come with me, together we can take the long way home
