CAPO: 2nd Fret 



Intro: F  C  F  G  F  C  G  C 


I can hear the rain beating on the window pane 

And the wind keeps asking, "When will I see you again?" 
      F             C 
It's another memory of you 
    F             G 
Of another night alone 
      F                   G                    C 
It's another night in the year of the long way home 



Wipers steady as a heartbeat 
F                      G 
Thunder like a passing train 
        C 
And the headlights picking out weeping willow 
F                       G 
Crying on the shoulder again 
      F                   C 
It's another night on the back road 
          F                  G 
Stretched tight like skin on bone 
      F                  G                    C 
It's another mile in the year of the long way home 



[Refrão]
           F         C 
And it's a long way, baby 
       F           G 
It's a long way, I know 
       F             C 
It's a rough road to travel 
       G                    C 
In the year of the long way home 


Instrumental: F  C  F  G  F  C  G  C 



When the hands can finally touch you 
            F             G 
When you're in my arms to hold 
           C 
When we're laying together laughing again 
         F                     G 
When the stories have all been told 
       F                C 
When I reach across the table 
          F              G 
Hold your hand inside my own 
      F                 G                    C 
I can see an end to the year of the long way home 



[Refrão]
       F         C 
It's a long way, baby 
       F           G 
It's a long way, I know 
       F             C 
It's a rough road to travel 
       G                    C 
In the year of the long way home

       F         C 
It's a long way, baby 
       F           G 
It's a long way, I know 
          F                 G                    C      F  G  C 
But I can see an end to the year of the long way home
