D                  E7sus4

wish you gave me a number

G6                    D

wish i could call you today,

               A7sus4

just to hear a voice.

Riff1  Dadd4  A      G

i got a long way to go

Riff2            D

getting further away.

Riff3  D


D                    E7sus4

if i didn't know the difference,

G6                             D

living alone would probably be ok.

               A7sus4

it wouldn't be lonely.

Riff1  Dadd4  A      G

i got a long way to go

Riff2            D

getting further away.

Riff3  D


F                 G             Bb

a lot of hours to occupy it was easy

              E        F

when i didn't know you yet,

D#         Bb   A@ Bb      C  C-9

things i'd have to forget.

F               G

but i better be quiet now,

    Bb       E          F

i'm tired of wasting my breath

D#       Bb  A@      Bb      C  C-9

carrying on, getting upset.


D              E7sus4

maybe i have a problem,

    G6                         D

but thats not what i wanted to say.

                A7sus4

i prefer to say nothing.

Riff1  Dadd4  A      G

i got a long way to go

Riff2            D

getting further away.

Riff3  D

F                 G                Bb

had a dream as an army man with an order

        E           F

just to march in my place

      D#      Bb A@            Bb  C  C9

but a dead enemy screams in my face

F               G

but i better be quiet now,

    Bb       E          F

i'm tired of wasting my breath

D#       Bb      A@      Bb  C  C9

carrying on, not over it yet.

D                         E7sus4

wish i knew what you were doing.

G6                         D

why you want to do it this way.

                  A7sus4

so i can't go the distance,

Riff1  Dadd4  A      G

i got a long way to go,

Riff2                D     E

i'm getting further away.

Riff1  Dadd4  A      A7sus4

i got a long way to go

Riff2                D

getting further away.

I can't take credit for any of this. All I did was clean it up and post it here. It 
be helpful if you could tell me if anything's wrong with this.
Thanks.
