¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
If the chords are too awkward, I'd suggest downtuning and transposing the tab +1 to play it in G major.
Since Bill doesn't usually use guitar in his songs, I tried my best to get the implied chords.
For the transition from A#7 to D#m in the chorus, you get can away with just playing the open D string
between the chords. I like playing it like this:
e|-1-------6-|
B|-3-------7-|
G|-1-------8-|
D|-3---0---8-|
A|-1-------6-|
E|-x-------x-|
[Intro]
F# B C# F#
[Verse 1]
F# B C# F#
I remember the moment that my dreams were broken
F# B C# F#
F# B C# F#
I wrote them down on a post card and then threw it away
F# B C# F#
F# B C# F#
I slipped into some trousers and rolled out my window
F# B C# F#
F# B C# F#
Then went out into the wilderness where I'm going to stay
F# B C#
[Chorus]
B F# C#
And it's a long, long, long journey that we've been on
B F# C#
And it's a long, long, long story that can be told
B A#7 A#7/D D#m
And it's a long, long day and we've come a long, long way
G#7 B/C# F#
And it's a long, long, long way back
N.C. F#
[Verse 2]
F# B C# F#
I'm looking around this museum for paintings I relate to
F# B C# F#
F# B C# F#
Even though most of them were painted by somebody else
F# B C# F#
F# Badd9 C# F#
Then we went to the movies and watched lots of films there, yeah
F# B C# F#
F# Badd9* C# F#
Now I'm going down to Hollywood to make them myself
F# B C#
[Chorus]
B F# C#
And it's a long, long, long journey that we've been on
B F# C#
And it's a long, long, long story that will be told
B A#7 A#7/D D#7
And it's a long, long day and we've come a long, long way
G#7 B/C# F#
And it's a long, long, long way back
F#add9 B F# C#
And it's a big, big vehicle that we're driving in
B F# C#
And I've been following this roadway since it began
B A#7 D#m
And if I came here to lose then I still might win
G#7 B/C# F#
When I go down that road again
[Bridge]
Bm F#m D E F#m
And the road doesn't end
F#m D E F#m D E F#m
It's a long, long road and we follow it again and again
F#m D E
And the road don't pretend
D/E
(hiye)
[Verse 3]
F# B C# F#
I went down to the Coast Guard to see what they're guarding
F# Badd9 C# F#
F# B C# F#
"See what the sign says, you idiot, we're guarding the coast"
F# B C# F#
F# B C# F#
Now I'm going on a podcast to talk about my memories
F# B C# F#
F# B C# F#
Even though I can't remember anything from before the show
(Bassline descends through F#6 chord)
[Pre-Chorus]
B F# C#
I've made some long, long phone calls to my friends at home
B F# C#
And I told them where I've been and the places I'm going
B G# A#m
And they said, "Wow, that's incredible, but we already know
G#7 B/C# F#
Because of that long, long song you wrote"
[Chorus]
B F# C#
About how it's a long, long, long journey that we've been on
B F# C#
And it's a long, long, long story that shall be told
B A#7 A#7/D D#m
And it's a long, long day and we've come a long, long way
[Outro]
G#7 B/C# D#m G#7
But there's still a long way to go-o-o-o
G#7 B C#
It's a long, long, long way
D#m G#7
It's a long, long, strong way
G#7 B/C#
It's a long, long, long way
F#
