Love comes as fast as it leaves
D MajorD                  C majorC
They think they've built a firm foundation
D MajorD          C majorC      E minorEm
'Till life knocks it down with a breeze!

G+G       C majorC     G+G

I'll take the long road to you

Jack bought himself a new tractor,

The bank bought him the land

I'll pay them by May if I can

Sometimes they talk about children

Names, and things that it'll do

G+G        C majorC        G+G
Jack was out ploughing the south field
E minorEm     C majorC       G+G
Trying to beat the next rain
D MajorD              C majorC
Susie, she watched through window
D MajorD        C majorC    E minorEm
As the down pour finally came
G+G         C majorC      G+G
He was riding the side of the terrace
E minorEm        C majorC    G+G
When the mud gave way to wheel
C majorC            D MajorD
Tractor tipped over on Jack
C majorC      D MajorD      E minorEm
The cold was all he could feel

G+G     C majorC      G+G
Susie ran out to the rain storm
E minorEm       C majorC       G+G
Threw her arms around her true love
D MajorD              C majorC
The tears were lost in the water,
D MajorD     C majorC     E minorEm
Next to a puddle of blood

G+G      C majorC      G+G
He told his wife not to worry
E minorEm            C majorC     G+G
Said the soft ground has broken my fall
D MajorD            C majorC
He told he'd loved her forever
D MajorD         C majorC      E minorEm
Then he didn't say nothing at all.


G+G     C majorC      G+G
Susie grew old and grey headed
E minorEm      C majorC   G+G
She never did marry again
D MajorD             B7B7  C majorC
Jack took the high road to freedom,
G+G      D MajorD      E minorEm
She took the long road to him

G+G       C majorC     G+G
Living comes natural to many
E minorEm      C majorC    G+G
Love comes natural to few
D MajorD      B7B7      C majorC
You take the high road to freedom
G+G       D MajorD      E minorEm
I'll take the long road to you
