[Intro 1]
[Am][Bb][F][Am][Bb][F][Am][Bb][F][Am][Bb]
[F]

[Verse 1]
I [Am]threw [Bb]away all the [F]letters you wrote
Thinking [Am]surely you could [Bb]never be loved
[F]I hesitate[Am]d at the bin[Bb]
before [F]dropping them in
But they were use[Am]less
and [Bb]push came to shove
[F]Because a mar[Am]k on a pag[Bb]e
ain't par[F]ticularly sage
If you're too [Am]drunk to read
[Bb]between the [F]lines
And these [Am]soft small [Bb]hands
whirling [F]comic sins
It's a laughable obses[Bb]sion of mine
[F]And we're all[Am] scrib
[F]bli[Eb]ng bullshit
on [Bb]bus stops and dirty doors[F]
And we're [Am]all [F]just l[Eb]ooking
for something [F]more[Bb]
[Am]Long [Bb]way d[F]own, you lose your f[Am]ooting
and your [Bb]face hits [F]the ground
[Am]Long [Bb]way d[F]own, it's [Am]a long way[Bb] dow[F]n[Am]
[Bb][F][Am][Bb][F][Am][Bb][F][Am][Bb][F]
[Am]I was a ch[Bb]ild to have ev[F]er believed
That your [Am]wanderlust could [Bb]ever be held
[F]But you[Am]r thoughts turn to shr[Bb]ink
and in[F]visible leak
When you're pissing off
the [Bb]edge of the world
[F]Cause you were cau[Am]ght in
[Bb]between real [F]life and your dream
Yeah, you [Am]found yourself [Bb]stuck in a bind
[F]Looking for tru[Am]th or concep[Bb]t,
terrible [F]as death
Only [Am]much, much [Bb]harder to [F]find
And we're [Am]all [F]temp[Eb]or ary
and we're [Bb]try ing not to
lose our head[F]s
And we're [Am]all look[F]ing [Eb]for
something better instead
[Bb]Long[Am] way d[Bb]own,
[F]you lose your foo[Am]ting
and your [Bb]face hits the [F]ground
[Am]Long [Bb]way down,
[F]it's a l[Am]ong way do[Bb]wn
[F]Lon[Am]g way[Bb] down,
[F]you lose your foo[Am]ting
and your [Bb]face hits the [F]ground
[Am]Long [Bb]way down,
[F]it's a l[Am]ong way do[Bb]wn[F]
[Eb]You'll shake down all the [Bb]world for
[Eb]Something [F]that you held in your hands
[Eb]A trinket on you[F]r kitchen sh[Bb]elf[F]
[Eb]I just wanted to be somebody
Bet[F]ter than the person I am
[Eb]Just wanted to be [Bb]somebody
[C]else[Csus4][C]
[Am]Long [Bb]way d[F]own
You lose your [Am]footing
and your [Bb]face hits the [F]ground
[Am]Long [Bb]way d[F]own
It's [Am]a long wa[Bb]y dow[F]n
[Am]Long [Bb]way d[F]own
You lose [Am]your, you lose your [Bb]footing
an[F]d your face hits the ground
[Am]Long [Bb]way d[F]own
It's [Am]a long wa[Bb]y dow[F]n
[Bb][F][F][Bb][F][F]
Long [Bb]way d[F]own
[F]It's a long [Bb]way [F]down
You
