"The Long Way" - Dan Fogelberg 

You can change some of the G's to G7 if you like or vice versa...

Intro:  C  Dm  Em  F

C       Dm        Em              F      Am        F                  G   G7
She was lost, and I thought I was found, even so I tried to bring her in

C       Dm         Em            F     Am              F                G   
She was young, and I had just begun to learn that even losing men could win

Chorus:
G7          F  G7   C       Dm   Em  F  G7   C       Dm   Em  F  G7   Am 
We went the lo-o-ng way, we went the lo-o-ng way, we went the lo-o-ng way
 
   G              F          G          C     Dm   Em  F   
Or maybe just the wrong way, I'll never know 

Overnight, we were shown the light, neither of us knew to look away
So we burned, and far too late we learned that lifetimes can't be lived out
In a day...

Chorus

So goodbye, at least we made the try, something can be said for love that's pure
If and when we ever try again, one thing will be known to us for sure...

G7           F  G7   C          Dm Em  F  G7   C          Dm Em  F  G7   Am 
We'll go the lo-o-ng way, we'll go the lo-o-ng way, we'll go the lo-o-ng way
 
   G              F          G          Am    G   F   G           Am
Or maybe just the wrong way, I'll never know...        I'll never know
