FC
My soul went walkin' but I stayed here
FC
Feel like I been workin' for a thousand years
FC
Chippin' away at this chain of my own lies
FC
Climbin' a wall a hundred miles high
GBb
Well I woke up this morning on the other side
CF
Yeah yeah this is the long goodbye
GBb | C | CF | C | C
Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
***
FC
Same old faces it's the same old town
FC
What once was laughs is draggin' me now
FC
Waitin' on rain hangin' on for love
FC
Words of forgiveness from some God above
GBb
Ain't no words of mercy comin' from on high
CF
Yeah yeah just one long goodbye
GBb | C | CF | C | F
Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
***
Well I went to leave twenty years ago
CF
Since then I guess I been packin' kind of slow
Sure did like that admirin' touch
CBbGC | C | CF | C | C
Guess I liked it a little too much
***
FC
The moon is high and here I am
FC
Sittin' here with this hammer in my hand
FC
One more drink oughta ease the pain
FC
Starin' at that last link in the chain
GBb
Well let's raise our glass and let the hammer fly
CF
hey yeah this is the long goodbye
GBb
Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
CF
Kiss me baby and we're gonna fly
GBb
Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
CF
Yeah yeah this is the long goodbye
GBb
Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
CF
Kiss me baby 'cause we're gonna ride
GBb
Yeah yeah this is the long goodbye
