Long Way Home by Romi Mayes

Very fast strumming.

Intro:
G-Em-C-G

Verse 1:
G                
You're no longer seventeen
C
And life it ain't no movie screen
Em                             D
Bullet doesn't seem so mean no more
G
Now you're standing at the dance
C
No one taught you 'bout romance
Em                           D
Taking second glances at the door

Chorus:
       G        Em
It's a long way home
            C
You see the finish line
     G
Gets further all the time
       G        Em
It's a long way home
               C
You're on your own
           G
You're all alone

Verse 2:
G
St. Peter sitting at the bar
C
Whiskey sour, big cigar
Em                                   D
He don't care which kind of harm you feed on
G
He's sitting with St. Augustine
C
Bleeding heart of Grenadine
Em                                 D
He don't even know which side he's on

Chorus

Verse 3:
G
Now you're at the pearly gates
C
Reminding Peter of the stakes
Em                                  D
He swears he's never bet the ace of hearts
G
You try to learn right from wrong
C
In church you sing the gospel song
Em                                     D
They were stringing you along from the start
