The Long Way Home

LONG WAY HOME  (Tom Waits)/ Norah Jones    
I watched a live video and this is how Norah Jones plays it. She hammers on the 2 
string/fret on G and Em. Hammer on the 3 in C

capo on 2nd

VERSE 1:
chG/ch
Well I stumbled in the darkness

I'm lost and alone
chG/ch
Though I said I'd go before us
		      chEm/ch
And show the way back home
	chC/ch	  chG/ch
There a light up ahead
		     chC/ch	  
I can't hold on very long
chG/ch			     chD/ch 		              chG/ch
Forgive me pretty baby but I always take the long way home


Pause
             chG/ch
Money's just something you throw

Off the back of a train
chG/ch
Got a head full of lightning
	      chEm/ch
A hat full of rain
      chC/ch	          chG/ch
And I know that I said
		chC/ch	
I'd never do it again
chG/ch				 chD/ch			  chG/ch
And I love you sweet baby but I always take the long way home
 

VERSE 3:
chG/ch
I put food on the table

And roof overhead
chG/ch
But I'd trade it all tomorrow
		 chEm/ch
For the highway instead
 	   chC/ch			     chG/ch			
Watch your back, keep your eyes shut tight
				     chC/ch
Your love's the only thing I've ever known
 	      chG/ch		         chD/ch			  chG/ch
One thing for sure pretty baby I always take the long way home


BRIDGE:
chD/ch	chC/ch     chG/ch      chC/ch    chD/ch
mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm


VERSE 4:
chG/ch		    
You know I love you baby

More than the whole wide world
chG/ch
You are my woman
		  chEm/ch
I know you are my pearl
	 chC/ch		    chG/ch
Let's go out past the party lights
       	                chC/ch
Where we can finally be alone
          chG/ch	   chD/ch			    chG/ch
Come with me...and we can take the long way home
      chC/ch	             chG/ch		  chD/ch 			   chG/ch
Mm mm mmm, come with me, together we can take the long way home
      chC/ch	             chG/ch		  chD/ch			   chG/ch
Mm mm mmm, come with me, together we can take the long way home
