Long Ride Home Patty Griffin
Capo 4
Intro: D
[D]Long black limousine
[D]Shiniest car I've ever seen
The [G]back seat is nice and clean
She [D]rides as quiet as a dream
[A]Someone dug a hole six long [G]feet in the [D]ground
I [A]said goodbye to you and I [G]threw my roses [D]down
Ain't [A]nothing left at all in the [G]end of being [D]proud
With me [G]riding in this car, and you [A]flying through them clouds
I've ha[G]d some time to think about it[D]
And [G]watch the stone set like a [D]stone
[G]I've had some time to think a[Bm]bout you
On the [A]long ride [D]home
One day I took your tiny hand
Put your finger in the wedding band
Your daddy gave a piece of land
We laid ourselves the best of plans
Forty years go by with someone laying in your bed
Forty years of things you say you'd never said
How hard would it have been to say some kinder words instead
I wonder as I stare up at the sky turning red
Chorus
[G]Headlights searchin? down the [D]driveway
The [G]house is dark as it can [A]be
[G]I go inside and all is sil[Bm]ent
It seems as [A]empty as the inside of me
Chorus
