[Verse 1]
I [F]don't know [Cadd11]what to [Dm7]say about [Csus4]these [Bbmaj7]days
I'm [F]seeing [Cadd11]people [Dm7]changing [Csus4]in the [Bbmaj7]strangest ways
Ev[F]en in the [Cadd11]richer [Dm7]neighbor[Csus4]hoods
[Bbmaj7]People don't know when they've got it good
They've [F]got the [Cadd11]envy, [Dm7]and they've [Csus4]got it [Bbmaj7]bad
[Instrumental Fill]
Here's one way to play that little fill that comes after some verses:
[F] [Cadd11] [Dm7] [Csus4] [Bbmaj7]
e|------0----------|-0-------3-------|-----0---------|---------------| B|------------3----|-----------------|-----1---------|---------------| G|-----------------|-----------------|-----2---------|---------------| D|----------------|------------------|---------------|---------------| A|-3----3-----2----|-0---------------|---------------|-----------0h2-| E|-----------------|---------3-------|-1-------------|---------------|
And another way:
[F] [Cadd11] [Dm7] [Csus4] [Bbmaj7]
e|-------------------|-----------------|---------------|--------------| B|--------5-----3----|-5-------8-------|-----1---------|--------------| G|-------------------|-----------------|-----0---------|--------------| D|--------7-----5----|-7-------10------|--3------------|--------------| A|-(3)----7-----5----|-7-------10------|-(3)-----------|--------------| E|-------------------|-----------------|---------------|--------------|
The normal verse chords continue underneath, so you can also just continue to play those instead.

[Verse 2]
[F]When I was a [Cadd11]kid ever[Dm7]ything I [Csus4]did was [Bbmaj7]trying to be free
[F]Running up and [Cadd11]down [Dm7]Tinsel [Csus4]Town with the [Bbmaj7]fire inside of me
My [F]planet's [Cadd11]all in [Dm7]retro[Csus4]grade, the [Bbmaj7]best of all my plans got laid
I [F]made my [Cadd11]breaks, and [Dm7]some mis[Csus4]takes
[Bbmaj7]Just not the ones people think I made
[Cborus Tab]

[Cborus]
Now I'm a [F]long[Cadd11] [Dm7] way[Csus4] gone[Bbmaj7]
Down this [F]wild[Cadd11] [Dm7]road [Csus4]I'm o[Bbmaj7]n
It's going to [F]take me [Cadd11] [Dm7]where I'[Csus4]m bou[Bbmaj7]nd
But it's the [F]long[Cadd11] [Dm7]way [Csus4]a- [Bbmaj7]round
[Instrumental Fill] x2
[Verse 3]
It's [F]so hard [Cadd11]keeping [Dm7]track of what's [Csus4]gone wrong[Bbmaj7]
The [F]cove[Cadd11]nant un[Dm7]ravel[Csus4]s, and the [Bbmaj7]news just rolls along
I could [F]feel my [Cadd11]memory [Dm7]letting [Csus4]go some [Bbmaj7]two or three disasters ago
It's [F]hard to [Cadd11]say which [Dm7]did more [Csus4]ill
[Bbmaj7]Citizens United or the Gulf oil spill[Bbmaj7]
[Cborus]
And I'm a [F]long[Cadd11] [Dm7] way[Csus4] gone[Bbmaj7]
Down this [F]wild[Cadd11] [Dm7]road [Csus4]I'm o[Bbmaj7]n
It's going to [F]take me [Cadd11] [Dm7]where I'[Csus4]m bou[Bbmaj7]nd
But it's the [F]long[Cadd11] [Dm7]way [Csus4]a- [Bbmaj7]round
[Instrumental Fill] x2
[Verse 4]
It's [F]never [Cadd11]been that [Dm7]hard to [Csus4]buy a gun[Bbmaj7]
Now they'll [F]sell a [Cadd11]Glock 1[Dm7]9 to [Csus4]just about [Bbmaj7]anyone
The [F]seeds of [Cadd11]trage- [Dm7]dy are [Csus4]there
In [Bbmaj7]what we feel we have the right to bear
To [F]watch our [Cadd11]children [Dm7]come to [Csus4]harm
[Bbmaj7]There in the safety of our arms
With [F]all we disagree about
The [Bbmaj7]passions burn, the [A7]heart goes out[F]
[Cborus]
And we're a l[F]ong [Cadd11] [Dm7] way [Csus4] gone[Bbmaj7]
Down this [F]wild[Cadd11] [Dm7]road [Csus4]we're o[Bbmaj7]n
It's going to [F]take us [Cadd11] [Dm7]where we[Csus4]'re b[Bbmaj7]ound
But it's the [F]long[Cadd11] [Dm7]way [Csus4]a- ro[Bbmaj7]und
