Dan Fogelberg - The Long Way
 
 
C       Dm/C     Cmaj7           F
She was lost and I thought I was found 
Am         F                  G7
Even so, I tried to bring her in 
C       Dm/C      Cmaj7        F
She was young and I had just begun 
   Am              F               G7
To learn that even losing, men can win 
 
 
CHORUS:
            F G7 C
We went the long way
   Cadd9 C   F G7 C
We went  the long way
   Cadd9 C   F G7 Am
We went  the long way
   C/G             F         G
Or maybe, just the wrong way
           C/G   F
I'll never know 
 
 
C   Dm/C   Cmaj7             F
Overnight, we were shown the light 
Am            F             G7
Neither of us knew to look away
C     Dm/C       Cmaj7           F
So we burned and far too late we learned 
     Am                 F              G7
That lifetimes can't be lived out in a day 
 
 
CHORUS:
            F G7 C
We went the long way
   Cadd9 C   F G7 C
We went  the long way
   Cadd9 C   F G7 Am
We went  the long way
   C/G             F         G
Or maybe, just the wrong way
           C/G   
I'll never know 
 
 
Interlude:: C  Dm/C  Cmaj7  F  Am  F  G7
  
  
C       Dm/C    Cmaj7             F
So, goodbye, at least we made the try 
Am               F                    G7
Something can be said for love that's pure 
C      Dm/C    Cmaj7     F
If and when we ever try again
Am                F               G7
One thing will be known to us for sure
 
 
CHORUS:
             F G7 C
We'll go the long way 
      Cadd9 C   F G7 C
We'll go    the long way 
      Cadd9 C   F G7 Am
We'll go    the long way
   C/G            F         G
Or maybe just the wrong way 
           Am C/G F G
I'll never know 
                      C/G
Whoa-Whoa, I'll never know
