Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu "The Long Road" dari Passenger:
[Intro]
G G G G (4x)
[Verse 1]
G C
You've walked a long road and you've worn it well. You stitched yourself up when you fell.
Am7 D G
Keep your memories in jars. Carry secrets in scars beneath your shell.
G C
You've seen some good days and some bad ones too. You weave through fashion and trend
Am7 D G
You've seen a sun rise on an ocean blue. You've seen it set for the dearest of friends
[Chorus]
C D G Em
You found faith but you, chose to doubt it. You found love but you, left without it
Am7 D G
And now you don't want to talk about it
[Verse 2]
G
You travelled down through foreign lands. Touched mountain tops and golden sand
C
Seen pyramids and temples made of stone
Am7 D
Keep seashells in a cashmere scarf. A treasured book of photographs
G
In every single one you stand alone
G
You've seen Vienna and the Berlin wall. As you watched the decades fall
C
The letters that you wrote never made it home
Am7 D
Your birthdays flew past like June with Christmas days in hotel rooms
G
And New Year's Eve with people you don't know
[Chorus]
C D G Em
You built friendships but they, sailed without you. You never meant it and that's why, they doubt you
Am7 D G G7
And they don't ever talk about you
[Outro]
Am7 D
And you're older than you used to be. The mirror weaves a tapestry of
G G/F# Em
lines that dance and shimmer 'round your eyes
Am7 D
You stare back at a man, forever holding out his hand as if
B7 Em
the answer's going to fall out of the sky
Am7 D G
But the penny never dropped. And no man has ever stopped time from flying by.
