Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][G][Em][D]
[C][Bm][Am][Am]

[Verse 1]
I set [G]out on a great adventure
The day my [Em]Father started leading me [D]home
He said there's [C]gonna be
some mountains to [Bm]climb
And some valleys we're [Am]gonna go through
But I [G]had no way of knowing
Just how [Em]hard this journey could [D]be
'Cause the [C]valleys are deeper
and the [Bm]mountains are steeper
Than [Am]I ever would've dre[Bm]amed

[Chorus 1]
[C]But I know we're gon[Em]na make it
[C]And I know we're gon[Em]na get[D] there soon
[C]And I know sometim[Em]es it fee[D]ls like
we're [A]going the wrong way
[C]But it's just a lon[Cm]g way home

[Interlude 1]
[G][G][Em][C]

[Verse 2]
I got some [G]rocks in my shoes,
fears I wish I could lose
They [Em]make the mountain so hard to [D]climb
And my [C]heart gets so [G]heavy
With the weight of the [Am]world sometimes
And there's a [G]bag of regrets
My should have beens and not yets
I [Em]keep on dragging a[D]round
And I can [C]hardly [G]wait for the day
I get to [Am]lay it all [Bm]down

[Chorus 2]
[C]But I know that day[Em] is coming
[C]And I know it's gon[Em]na be [D]here soon
[C]And I won't turn bac[Em]k even if [D]the whole
[A]world says I'm going the wrong way
[C]'Cause it's just a lon[Cm]g way home

[Bridge 1]
[Am]When we can't take[Bm] another step
Our Father [Em]will pick us up
and [D]carry us in his [C]arms
And even on the [Am]best days
He says to re[Bm]member we're not home yet
So don't get [Em]too comfortab[A]le
'Cause really [C]all we are is [Cm]just pilgrims passing

[Interlude 2]
[G](through)[Bm][Em][D]
[C][G][Am][Am][Bm]

[Chorus 3]
[C]Well, I know we're gon[Em]na make it
[C]And I know we're gon[Em]na get[D] there soon
[C]So I'll keep on sin[Em]ging and belie[D]ving
[A]What all of my songs say

[Chorus 4]
[C]'Cause our God has mad[Em]e a promise
[C]And I know that eve[Em]rything He say[D]s is true
[C]And I know whereve[Em]r we go,[D]
[A]He will never leave us
[C]'Cause He is gonna lea[Cm]d us hom[Em]e[D]
[C]Every single [Cm]step of the long way

[Outro 1]
[G](home) (...we're gonna make it)
[Em](I know we'r[D]e gonna make it)
[C](We're just tak[Cm]ing the long way home)
[G](Keep on we're gonna make it)
[Em](I know we'r[D]e gonna make it)
[C]We're just tak[Cm]ing the long way home
[G](Keep on we're gonna make it)
[Em](I know we'r[D]e gonna make it)
[C](We're just tak[Cm]ing the long way home)
[G]Taking the long way home (...gonna make it)
[Em](I know we'r[D]e gonna make it)
[C]It's just a lon[Cm]g way hom[G]e
