Intro:
A


Verse 1:
A                      Em               D        A
There's a long line of mourners coming down my street
                                     E
Their fancy cars are such a sight to see
         A                            D               A
They're all of your rich friends that you knew in the city
                         E                 A
And now they finally brought you back to me


Verse 2:
D                                    A
The papers told of how you lost your life
                                      E
Of the party and the fatal crash that night
A                           D             A
The race on the highway the curve nobody seen
                           E              A
Now you're riding in that long black limousine

Verse 3:
             A                                                     D  A  E
When you left home you told me that, that someday you'd be returning
A                                         E
With a fancy car for the whole town to see
A                                                           D                        A  D  A
Well now everybody's watching now and I guess you could say you finally got your dream
                      E                A
You're riding in that long black limousine


Verse 4:
D                D N.C                      A
Through tears I watched as you ride by
                                           E
With a chauffer at the wheel dressed up so fine
     A                     D             A
I'll never love another my heart and all my dreams
                      E              A
Ride with you in that long black limousine


Verse 5:
A                 D          A
Precious memories how they linger
                        E
How they yell flood my soul
A             D      A
In mysterious of the midnight
           E            A
Precious sacred seems unfold
          E
Precious sacred seems unfold
