Tuning:E A D G B E
capo 4 (original version)
capo 3 (later version)
Intro: G Dadd4 Cadd9 Bb6 no5
A7sus4 (A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 A7sus2) (Riff 1)
G (Gsus2)* Dadd4
Verse 1: I’ve got one more remaining hour
Cadd9 Bb6 no5 A7sus4 [Riff 1]
with you in this dusty room. And you know that
G Dadd4
just like some plastic flowers
Cadd9 Bb6 no5 A7sus4 [Riff 1]
You just never see them bloom
Chorus: C
Oh I, I burned the candle,
Dadd4(2)
For you so many times
G Dadd4 Em (Em sus4)
You know they never burn too slow
Cadd9 Bb6 no5 Dsus4 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
A D5
This I know, now I 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 Cadd9
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]
