Long Way Down

1 

 


Intro: D G  


verse 1:  

D           G                 D        G  
One time I shook hands with a pirate  
D           G                D         G  
He gave me a map to all his gold  
D           G                D         G  
After a lifetime I finally found it  
D                 G                D      G  
By then I was too old to bring it home  
         Bm   A     D    (G  D, G)  
It was a long way down  

D            G              D       G  
On a snowy night in late December  
D            G             D        G  
I set out to find some mistletoe  
D                G                D       G  
She had promised me all kinds of kisses  
D               G                D         G  
None of them were worth the poems I wrote  
          Bm   A    G  
It was a long way down  


 
A             G               D  
Long way to fall to have nobody catch ya  
A             G               D  
Long way to call to have nobody answer  
A             G              D 
Long walk home if you don't know the mountain  
      G, D, G  
Roads  


verse 2: 
 
D                G              D       G  
One night while playing in a graveyard  
D                     G               D         G  
Somebody's hand reached up and grabbed my leg  
D           G              D       G  
It was my dearly departed grandpa  
D                   G              D         G  
He said 'I bet you thought that I was dead  
              Bm   A    D    (G  D, G)  
I was just a long way down'  

D                G                       D            G  
And on the night before the day that I got married  
D                   G              D      G     
An old man said 'Hey listen to me son  
D                   G               D         G  
Make sure you wanna hold that girl forever  
D                   G                 D              G  
'Cuz once you say 'I do' you gotta do it 'till it's done  
            Bm   A    G  
And it's a long way down'  


 
A             G               D  
Long way to fall to have nobody catch ya  
A             G               D  
Long way to call to have nobody answer  
A             G              D  
Long walk home if you don't know the mountain  
      G, D, G  
Roads  


 
A             G               D  
A long fall down to Earth from Heaven  
A            G                D  
A long walk back to there from Hell  
A                  G                    D  
And sometimes the difference between them is hard to  
Bm      D     G  
Tell 

 


verse 3  
D                G               D          G  
One time I met a tree out in the forest  
D                   G              D         G  
I said 'Tree I wanna be as big as you'  
D                      G                 D         G  
He said 'Boy I wish you never had have found me  
D                      G                  D        G  
'Cuz that means that lumberjack can find me too  
             Bm  A    G   D  
And it's a long way down'
