Long Way Home

[Verse 1]
      C
Got a fighting chance
        Fsus2             Dm
And the landscape looks familiar
        Fsus2         Am7                    Gsus4  G
But I'm looking for a place I've never seen
         C
And I've made mistakes
      Fsus2         Em
And I know I'm only human
    Fsus2          Am7                   Gsus4  G
And no one gets it right without a wrong
 
 
[Chorus]
        Fsus2
And I'm on my way, walking in circles
  C/E
A cloud by day, leading me onward
          Am7
Thought I heard You say
                          G
We're taking the long way home
 
Taking the long
Fsus2
Fire at night, lighting the shadows
C/E
Moving along, little by little
       Am7
Then I heard You say
                    G
Taking the long way home
 
 
[Verse 2]
         C
Oh, I've played my hand
         Fsus2          Em
And they say it's all a gamble
    F                    Am7                     Gsus4  G
But I'd rather lose than know I've never tried
         C
Look how far we've come
         Fsus2         Em
Caught a vision of the future
Fsus2                   Am7                     G
Laughing out loud while we pray for better days
 
 
[Chorus]
        Fsus2
And I'm on my way, walking in circles
  C/E
A cloud by day, leading me onward
          Am7
Thought I heard You say
                          G
We're taking the long way home
 
Taking the long
Fsus2
Fire at night, lighting the shadows
C/E
Moving along, little by little
       Am7
Then I heard You say
                    G
Taking the long way home
 
 
[Bridge]
     Fsus2
It's two steps forward and one step back
       C/E
It’s a past regret and a second chance
      Am7
It’s yelling at the sky while He says it’s worth the wait
Bb                           Am7
  I hope it’s worth the wait
 
 
[Chorus]
        Fsus2
And I'm on my way, walking in circles
  C/E
A cloud by day, leading me onward
          Am7
Thought I heard You say
                          G
We're taking the long way home
 
Taking the long
Fsus2
Fire at night, lighting the shadows
C/E
Moving along, little by little
       Am7
Then I heard You say
                          G
We're taking the long way home
              Got a fighting chance
And the landscape looks familiar
But I'm looking for a place I've never seen

And I've made mistakes
And I know I'm only human
And no one gets it right without a wrong

And I'm on my way walking in circles
A cloud by day leading me onward
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home
Taking the long way
A fire at night lighting the shadows
Moving along little by little
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home

Oh, I've played my hand
And they say it's all a gamble
But I'd rather lose than know I've never tried

Look how far we've come
Caught a vision of the future
Laughing out loud while we pray for better days

And I'm on my way walking in circles
A cloud by day leading me onward
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home
Taking the long way
A fire at night lighting the shadows
Moving along little by little
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home
Taking the long way

It's two steps forward and one step back
It's a past regret and a second chance
It's yelling at the sky while He says it's worth the wait
I hope it's worth the wait

Been a long time coming
Been a long time coming

Oh, and I'm on my way walking in circles
A cloud by day leading me onward
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home
Taking the long way
A fire at night lighting the shadows
Moving along little by little
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home
We're taking the long way home

It's been a long time coming
