 B  
 You break a few bones, you break a few nails 
  A              E         B  
 (Every time you leave me 'lone)  
 B 
 It’s like you set me down when you set your sails 
  A              E         B  
 (Every time you leave me 'lone) 
 B                                            A E B 
 You send a few letters but they’re never enough 
         F#     E                        B 
 It gets rough, every time you leave me 'lone 

 I don’t do so good on my own 
 I need a telescope, not a telephone 
 Stray cat strutting through a snowy backyard 
 It gets hard, every time you pick up and go 


    G#m         F#m              E     B 
    Table seats four and a couch seats three 
    G#m     F#m       E            
    Bed for two and a chair for me 
    G#m     F#m           E       B 
    Tweedle Dum, where’s Tweedle Dee? 

 Sitting by the fire and watching it burn, 
 Things feel different when you return 
 They say that "good things come to those who stay" 
 Come on and stay! Why d’ya gotta go away? 
 (Why'dya always gotta take the long way home?) 

 Why d’ya always gotta take the long way home?
