_ _ [Cm] you
So you thinking [Bb] of Romeo,

wearing a party [C] as the pictures show

Did you jump [Bb] down the neighbourhood
[F]
Make sure you're [C] carrying and feeling good
Take the long way home
[Bb] [C] Take the long way home
_ [Em] There are times that you feel the [Am] power of the scenery,

_ _ [Bb] _
[F] He's so [G] nice,
_ _ [Cm]
For lonely [Bb] men he's changed lonely nights,
[F] He takes a trip [C] to the city house,

[Bb] [Cm] Take the long way home, _
You never see [Bb] what you wanna see,
[F] For a friend [C] to do,
[Bb] He takes the long [F] way home,

_ _ [Eb] Oh, _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _
_ [C] _ _ _ how [Bb] unforgettable [C]
you _ [Em] are,
Oh, how unforgettable you are,
It's as if you'd like to [Am] come and _ [C] _ _ [F] rest with him,
You [Bb] should go [F] around the boy,
[G] When you [Em] look through the years and see [Am] what you could have [C] been,
Oh, [F] what you might have been,
_ [Bb] You'd have _ [F] more [G] time,
_ _ [Cm]
But when the day [Bb] comes to stand it down,
[F] Who's to [C] blame if you're not around?
[Bb] Take the long [F] way home,
[Bb] [Ab] Take the long way home,
[F] Take the long way home,
Take the long way home,

Take [F] the long way home,
