Palm mute rests. | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A I'll go walk across the desert, until I'm by fried by fire. -Aadd4-A I won't think about, what I left behind. -Aadd4-A Another 'tracter in her way, I can call my own. -Aadd4-A Go back home, leave me alone. -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A But I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge: | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A Ever since the critics burned the White House down, -Aadd4-A There's a bleedin' wound in the heart of town. -Aadd4-A I saw you drinkin' from an empty cup. -Aadd4-A I saw you buried and I saw you you dug up. -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge: | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A Look down angel from the skies, help my weary soul to rise. -Aadd4-A I kissed the cheek, I dragged your plough. -Aadd4-A You broke my heart, I was your friend until now. -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge: | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A In the courtyard of the Golden Sun. -Aadd4-A You stand and fight, or you break and run. -Aadd4-A You went and lost your lovely head, for a drink of wine and a crust of bread. -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A If I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge: | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A We looted and we plundered, long distant shores. -Aadd4-A Why is my share not equal to yours? -Aadd4-A Your father left you, your mother too. -Aadd4-A Even death has, washed his hands of you. -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge: | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A This is hard country, to stay alive in. -Aadd4-A Blades are everywhere and they are breakin' my skin. -Aadd4-A I'm armed to the hilt and I'm struggling' hard. -Aadd4-A You won't get out, of here unscarred. -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge: | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A You've got too many lovers, wailin' at the wall. -Aadd4-A If I had a thousand tons, I couldn't count 'em all. -Aadd4-A Yesterday, I could've put them all in the sea. -Aadd4-A Today, even one, may be too much for me. -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge: | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A Cake walkin' baby, you can do no wrong. -Aadd4-A Put your arms around me, where they belong. -Aadd4-A I want to take ya, on a rollercoaster ride. -Aadd4-A Lay my hands all over ya. Tie ya to my side. -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge: | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A I got a heavy stacked woman, with a smile on her face. -Aadd4-A And she is proud, my soul to grace. -Aadd4-A I've saved her from an arrow, and pierced my chest. -Aadd4-A I'm gonna have to take my head, and bury it between her breasts. -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge: | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A 'Been dark all night, but now it's dawn. -Aadd4-A The moving finger is movin' on. -Aadd4-A You can garden here, while I sleep. -Aadd4-A Kiss away, the tears I weep. -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge: | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A I love a woman, and she loves me. -Aadd4-A We've been to the west and we're goin' back again. -Aadd4-A I heard a voice, at the dusk of day. -Aadd4-A Say "Be gentle brother. Be gentle and pray." -D3add4- -Aadd4-A It's a long road, it's a long and narrow way, -- -D3add4- -Aadd4-A I can't work up to you, you'll surely have work down to me some day. | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | | -Aadd4-A | -Aadd4-A | Notes: 1. I've done my best to approximate the rhythm contribution, which has a very Tex-Mex feel. Given that Dave Hildago is in the recorded band, I'm sure that this is his key signature. :-R
