Verse 1:
    G          C           D              G       G C D G
I remember the moment that my dreams were broken
             G         C            D             G      G C D G
I wrote them down on a postcard and then threw it away
          G         C            D             G        G C D G
I slipped into some trousers and rolled out my window
          G            C                D            G      G C D
Then went out into the wilderness where I'm going to stay

Chorus:
           C
And it’s a long, long, long journey
     G          D
That we've been on
           C
And it's a long, long, long story
     G      D
That can be told
           C
And it’s a long, long day
                 B7         Em
And we've come a long, long way
           C           D        G
And it's a long, long, long way back

Verse 2:
        G           C          D           G          G C D G
Looking around this museum for paintings I relate to
            G                 C          D        G      G C D G
Even though most of them were painted by somebody else
        G           C          D               G            G    C D G
Then we went to the movies and watched lots of films there, yeah
        G             C            D         G         G C D
Now I'm going down to Hollywood to make them myself

Chorus:
           C
And it’s a long, long, long journey
     G          D
That we've been on
           C
And it's a long, long, long story
     G       D
That will be told
           C
And it’s a long, long day
                 B7         Em
And we've come a long, long way
           C           D        G
And it's a long, long, long way back

Post-Chorus:
           C                           G       D
And it's a big, big vehicle that we’re driving in
              C                            G  D
And I've been following this roadway since it began
         C                        B7          Em
And if I came here to lose then I still might win
          C         D     G
When I go down that road again

Bridge:
                     Cm  G
And the road doesn't end
       Cm                     G                   Cm      G
It's a long, long road and we follow it again and again
                   Cm        G D
And the road don’t pretend

Verse 3:
       G           C              D                G          G C D G
I went down to the Coast Guard to see what they're guarding
             G              C            D            G          G C D G
See what the sign says, you idiot, we're guarding the coast
        G          C          D             G          G C D G
Now I'm going on a podcast to talk about my memories
              G              C             D          G          G C D
Even though I can't remember anything from before the show

Pre-Chorus:
               C                            G          D
I've made some long, long phone calls to my friends at home
      C                                 G          D
And I told them where I've been and the places I'm going
                C                              G       D
And they said, "Wow, that's incredible, but we already know"
                 C          D        G
"Because of that long, long song you wrote." About how it's a-

Chorus:
           C
And it’s a long, long, long journey
     G          D
That we've been on
           C
And it's a long, long, long story
     G        D
That shall be told
           C
And it’s a long, long day
                 B7         Em
And we've come a long, long way

Outro:
            Am           D      Em
But there's still a long way to go
       C           D
It's a long, long, long way
       B7         E
It's a long, long strong way
       C           D        G
It's a long, long, long way forward
