-VERSE-
A~ E7sus4~
Blacking in and out in a strange flat in East London
Gadd9~ D~
Somebody I don't really know just gave me something
A~ E7sus4~ Gadd9~ D~
To help settle me down and to stop me from always thinking about you
A~ E7sus4~
And you know you're life is heading in a questionable direction
Gadd9~ D~
When you're up for days with strangers and you can't remember anything
A~ E7sus4~ Gadd9~ Gadd9. D// Eadd9
Except the way you sounded when you told me you didn't know what I should do
-CHORUS-
Well, it's a [E7]long road up to re[D]covery from [Eadd9]here
E7 D>Dmaj7>D6 Eadd9
A long way back to the light
A [E7]long road up to re[D]covery from [Eadd9]here
A [E7]long way to making it [D]right
-VERSE-
[---]The chords during the verse are played palm-muted and staccato'd,
gradually becoming played open and ringing out normally
[---]  
And so I [A]wake up in the morning just like [E7sus4]every other day
And just like [Gadd9]every boring blues song I get [D]swallowed by the pain
So I [A]fumble for your figure in the [E7sus4]darkness just to make it go away[Gadd9] [D]
But you're not [A]lying there any longer and I [E7sus4]know that that's my fault
So I've been [Gadd9]pounding on the floor and I've been [D]crawling up the walls
And I've been [A]dipping in my darkness for sero[E7sus4]tonin boosters, [Gadd9]cider and some kind of [D]smelling [Eadd9]salts
-CHORUS-
Well, it's a [E7]long road up to re[D]covery from [Eadd9]here
E7 D>Dmaj7>D6 Eadd9
A long way back to the light
A [E7]long road up to re[D]covery from [Eadd9]here
A [E7]long way to making it [D]right
-BRIDGE-
[cb]A6add9[/cb] Dsus2 A Em
So on the first night we met, you said well darling lets make a deal
[cb]A6add9[/cb] Dsus2 A Em
If anybody ever asks us, let's just tell them that we met in jail
[cb]A6add9[/cb] Dsus2
And that's the story that I'm sticking to like a stony faced accomplice
But [A]tonight I need to hear some truth if I'm [Em]ever getting through this
[cb]A6add9[/cb] Dsus2
Yeah, you once sent me a letter that said if you're lost at sea
Close your [A]eyes and catch the tide my dear and [Em]only think of me
Well, [G]darling now I'm was sinking I'm[D] as lost as lost can be
Eadd9 > ? > ? > Eadd9
And I was hoping you could drag me up from down here towards my recovery
[A] [E7sus4] [Gadd9] [D]  
[A] [E7sus4] [Gadd9] [D]  
-VERSE-
If you could [A]just give me a sign, just a [E7sus4]subtle little glimmer
Some su[Gadd9]ggestion that you'd have me if I could [D]only make me better
Then I would [A]stand a little stronger as I [E7sus4]walk a little taller all the [Gadd9]time[D]
Because I [A]know you are a cynic but I [E7sus4]think I can convince you
Yeah, cause [Gadd9]broken people can get better [D]if they really want to
Or at [A]least that's what I have to tell [E7sus4]myself if I am hoping [Gadd9]to surv[D////]ive[Eadd9]
-CHORUS-
Well, it's a [E7]long road up to re[D]covery from [Eadd9]here
E7 D>Dmaj7>D6 Eadd9
A long way back to the light
A [E7]long road up to re[D]covery from [Eadd9]here
A [E7]long way to making it [D]right
-OUTRO-
So, [Eadd9]darling, sweet lover, won't you help me to recover
[D]Darling, sweet lover, won't you help me to recover
[Eadd9]Darling, sweet lover, won't you help me to recover
D Asus2~ (strum this from the bottom up)
Darling, sweet lover, one day this will all be over
