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
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
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
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
