[Intro]
| Am    | Am    | Am    | Am    |
 
 
[Verse 1]
Am                       C
 Hear people sayin' that life's so tough
             G                      F              G
That they're so strung out runnin' 'round in a mad rush
Am                       C
 We've forgotten how to slow it down
       G                             F          C/E
How to take a deep breath and have a good look around
 
 
[Chorus]
F                           C
 Don't believe 'em when you hear 'em say
G                          Am              G
Things were so much better back in the old days
       F                         C
There's nothin' greater than the here and now
        Em            F              G
So just take my hand, join me on the long way 'round
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
| Am    | C     | G     | G  Em7 |
 
 
[Verse 2]
Am                      C
 If you and I were just floatin' through space
                G                              F
And there ain't nothin' more amazin' than this human race
Am                         C
Everybody hеre has got the light inside
       G                      F                C/E
But it gеts shot down, we get caught up in the lies
 
 
[Chorus]
F                           C
 Don't believe 'em when you hear 'em say
      G                               Am        G             F
Their God's the true God because they pray in a certain kinda way
                         C
Just look for love, girl, that's where it's found
   Em               F              G    Am
So take my hand and join me on the long
C         G                 F
 The long way 'round, oh-oh-oh
G         Am
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
C         G                 F
 The long way 'round, oh-oh-oh
 
 
[Bridge]
G
Ooh, and when you feel like givin' up
F                          C
Everybody tries, but there ain't no shortcut
G
 Just keep on dancin', we'll get it right
    Dm         Em         F              G     Am
And maybe some day we can make it to the bright white light
C           G                  F
 The bright white light, oh-oh-oh
          Am      C    G    F
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
 
 
[Chorus]
    C/E  F                             C
Hey,     'cause when it's dark and the road gets hazy
     G                            Am              G
Just promise to remember that the world is (whew) crazy
F                  C
 Nobody here knows where we're bound
        Em                F              G
So just take my hand, and join me on the long way
F                               C
 And don't believe 'em when you hear 'em say
     G                          Am          G
That things were so much better back in the old days
F                                 C
 There's nothin' greater than the here and now
   Em               F              G       Am
So take my hand and join me on the long way 'round
C         G                F
 The long way 'round, woah-oh
          Am      C    G    F
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,          yeah
