[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[C]My friends from high school
Married their high school boyfriends
Moved into houses in
the same ZIP codes
Where their parents live

[Verse 2]
But [Am]I, I could never f[C]ollow
No, [Am]I, I could never follo[C]w[Csus4][C]

[Verse 3]
[C]I hit the highway in a pink RV with
stars on the ceiling
Lived like a gypsy
Six strong hands on the steering wheel

[Verse 4]
I've been [Am]a long [G]time [F]gone [C]now
Maybe [Am]someday,
[G]someday I'm gonna [F]settle [C]down
But I've [Am]always [G]found my [F]way some[C]how

[Verse 5]
By [Am]taking the [G]long [F]way[C]
[Am]Taking the [G]long way [F]around[C]
[Am]Taking the [G]long [F]way[C]
[Am]Taking the [G]long way around

[Interlude 1]
[F][C]

[Verse 6]
I met the [C]queen of whatever
Drank with the Irish,
and smoked with the hippies
Moved with the shakers
Wouldn't kiss all the asses
that they told me to
[Am]No, [C]I,

[Verse 7]
[Am]I could never foll[C]ow
No, [Am]I, I could never follo[G]w

[Verse 8]
It's been [Am]two [G]long y[F]ears n[C]ow
Since [Am]the top of the [G]world
came [F]crash[C]ing down
And [Am]I'm getting' it
[G]back on the [F]road [C]now

[Verse 9]
But [Am]I'm taking the [G]long [F]way[C]
[Am]Taking the [G]long way [F]around[C]
I'm [Am]taking the [G]long [F]way[C]
[Am]Taking the [G]long way [F]around
[G]The [F]long...
[G]The [F]long way around

[Interlude 2]

[Verse 10]
Well, I [C]fought with a stranger, and I met myself
I opened my mouth, and I heard myself
It can get pretty lonely when
you show yourself
Guess I could have made
it easier on myself

[Verse 11]
But [Am]I, I could never f[C]ollow
No, [Am]I, I could never follo[G]w
Well, [Am]I never

[Verse 12]
seem to [G]do
it like [F]any[C]body else
Maybe [Am]someday,
[G]someday I'm gonna [F]settle [C]down
If you [Am]ever want to [G]find me,
I [F]can still [C]be found
