The Long Road Passenger
Chords : D G Em A Bm F#m
Capo: 7th
intro: D Fingerpicking (D Only)
[D]We've walked the long road and you've worn it well.
You stitched yourself up when you fel[G]l.
K[Em]eep your memories in jars,
[A]Carry secrets in scars
Beneath your shell[D].
[D]
[D]You've seen some good days, and some bad ones too.
You weave through fashion and trend[G].
[Em] You've seen a sun rise on an ocean blu[A]e,
You[D]'ve seen it set for the dearest of friends
[G] You found faith but yo[A]u, c[Em]hose to [A]doubt it.
[D] You found love but you[Bm], left without it.
[Em]
[G]And now you don[A]'t want, to talk about it.
[D]
[D]You travelled down through foreign lands,
Touched mountain tops and golden sand,
Seen pyramids and temples made of stone.[G]
K[Em]eep seashells in a cashmere scarf,
[A]A treasured book of photographs
[D]In every single one you stand alone.
[D]
[D]You've seen Vienna and the Berlin wall,
As you watched the decades fall
The letters that you wrote never made it home.[G]
[Em]Your birthdays flew past like June,
[A]With Christmas days in hotel rooms
[D]And new year's eve with people you don't know.
[G] You built friendships but th[A]ey, sa[Em]iled without [A]you.
[D] You never meant it and that's why, t[Bm]hey doubt you.
[Em]
[G]They don'[A]t ever talk about you.
[D]
[Em]You're older than you used to be,
[A]The mirror weaves a tapestry
[D]Of lines that dance and sh[F#m]immer 'round your eyes.[Bm]
[Em]You stare back at a man, fore[A]ver holding out his hand
[F#m]As if the answer's gonna to f[D]all out of the sky. [Bm]
[Em]But the penny never dropped,
[F#m]And no [G]man has [A]ever stopped time f[D]lying by.
