Jimmy Barnes and Diesel - Still Got a Long Way To Go
capo 4 (original version)
capo 3 (later version)
Intro:G D add4 C add9 Bb6 no5
A7Sus4 (A7Sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 A7sus2) (Riff 1)
G (G sus2) D add4
Verse 1:I've got one more remaining hour
C add9 Bb6 no5 A7sus4 (Riff 1)
with you in this dusty room. And you know that
[G] just like [D] [add4]some plastic flowers
C add9 Bb6 no5 A7sus4 (Riff 1)
You just never see them bloom
Chorus:C
Oh I, I burned the candle,
[D] [add4(2)] For you so many times
[G] You know they [D]ne[add4]ver burn too [Em]slow[(Em][sus4)]
C add9 Bb6 no5 D sus4 G..(Repeat intro chords)
And I've still got a long way to go
Verse 2:I came across a wise man
Seemed that he might understand
Promised that he would lighten up my load (Yes he did now).
I put my money in his hand,
I thought he was a ticket man
Sent me off down the road
Chorus:Oh well I put my trust in
oh so many a man
Never tell who's friend or foe
And I've still got a long way to go
Bridge: F 6th no5 G
Time can be so hard (time can be so hard)
F 6th no5 G Em
There ain't no shuffling of the cards that you dealt
This I [A]know, now I [D5]know.
Verse 3:I walked through fields of snow
Feeling warm from the after-glow
I thought I'd never feel the cold. And you know that
I saw a star up in the sky,
I felt that it could be mine
Instead it was the king of rock n'roll
Chorus: Yeah, things aren't always quite
what they seem, no.
I'd pay nothing to see the show
F 6th no5 C add9
And I've still got a long way to go. Oh,oh whoa.
Verse 4:I've still got a long way (still got a long way)
I've still got a long way
And I've still got a long way to go.
(Repeat ad lib)
