The Romany Rye - Long way down
capo 2nd
[F]I came down the hard w[G]ay,
Wi[C]th eyes to curse the cruel[Am] days
[F]Lips to laugh the[G] whole night, thr[C]ough
[F]I bought a ladder from a f[G]riend,
Th[C]at said that I could [Am]fly
[F]Since my thought[G]s have turned bla[C]ck as midnight
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_romany_rye/long_way_down_crd.html )
[F]Cause it's a [C]long way d[G]own, l[F]ong w[C]ay do[G]wn
[F]Long w[C]ay do[G]wn, from the botto[F]m[C]
From cheap ritz and burgundy,
The stale smell of mystery
I think no one here,
Is quite what they seem
The siren sings the sweet songs,
To Judas on the front lawn
While Dianna's in the bathroom,
Getting stoned
Cause it's a long way down, long way down
Long way down, from the bottom
The ghost of Ophellia,
Said "What you'd like I could steal for ya."
But what you need,
you don't cause to think
Now my voice, could never carry
The lips that gave it wings,
But my smile could tell a lie
With no words
Cause it's a long way down, long way down
Long way down, from the bottom
It's a long way down, long way down
Long way down, from the bottom
