  F                  Dm              Bb
I don't know what to say about these days

    F             Dm                        Bb
I'm seeing people changing in the strangest ways

F                  Dm
Even in the richer neighborhoods

Bb
People don't know when they've got it good

        F           Dm                  Bb
They've got the envy and they've got it bad
[Interlude] F Dm Bb F Dm Bb [Verse 2]
F                     Dm              Bb
When I was a kid everything I did was trying to be free

F                   Dm                   Bb
Running up and down Tinsel Town with the fire inside of me

   F              Dm              Bb
My planets all in retrograde, the best of all my plans got laid

  F                  Dm
I made my breaks and some mistakes

Bb
Just not the ones people think I made
[Chorus]
      F   Dm   Bb
I'm a long way gone

          F    Dm       Bb
Down this wild road I'm on

  F                  Dm              Bb
It's going to take me where I'm bound

             F    Dm   Bb
But it's the long way around
[Interlude] F Dm Bb F Dm Bb F Dm Bb F Dm Bb [Verse 3]
       F                   Dm                  Bb
It's a little hard keeping track of what's gone wrong

    F          Dm             Bb
The covenant unravels and the news just rolls along

         F             Dm              Bb
I could feel my memory letting go some two or three disasters ago

     F                 Dm
It's hard to say which did more ill

Bb
Citizens United or the Gulf oil spill
[Chorus 2]
      F   Dm   Bb
I'm a long way gone

          F    Dm       Bb
Down this wild road I'm on

  F                  Dm              Bb
It's going to take me where I'm bound

             F    Dm   Bb
But it's the long way around
[Solo] F Dm Bb F Dm Bb F Dm Bb F Dm Bb [Verse 4]
     F               Dm            Bb
It's never been that hard to buy a gun

            F            Dm             Bb
Now they'll sell a Glock 19 to just about anyone

F                  Dm
The seeds of tragedy are there

   Bb
In what we feel we have the right to bear

   F
To watch our children come to harm

Bb
There in the safety of our arms

     F                     Bb
With all we disagree about the passions burn,

    Bbm           Dm
the heart goes out
[Chorus 3]
      F   Dm   Bb
I'm a long way gone

          F    Dm       Bb
Down this wild road I'm on

  F                  Dm              Bb
It's going to take me where I'm bound

             F    Dm   Bb
But it's the long way around
