Long Ride Home Patty Griffin
Long Black Limousine
[G]Shiniest car I've ever seen
[C]The back seat is nice and clean
[G]She rides as quiet as a dream
[D]Someone dug a hole six long[C] feet in the g[G]round
I [D]said goodbye to you and I [C]threw my roses [G]down
[G]Ain't [D]nothing left at all in the [C]end of being [G]proud
[G]With me [C]riding this car, and you [D]flying through the clouds
[---]
[C]I've had some time to think [G]about it
[C]And watch the sun sink like a [G]stone
[C]I've had some time to think a[Em]bout you
On the[D] long ride [G]home
[---]
[G]One day I took your tiny hand
[G]Put your finger in the wedding band
[C]Your daddy gave a piece of land
[G]We laid ourselves the best of plans
[D]Forty years go by with someone [C]laying in your [G]bed
[D]Forty years of things you say you [C]wish you'd never [G]said
How [D]hard would it have been to say some [C]kinder words i[G]nstead
[C]I wonder as I stare up at the [D]sky turning red
[----]
[C]I've had some time to think [G]about it
[C]And watch the sun sink like a [G]stone
[C]I've had some time to think a[Em]bout you
On the[D] long ride [G]home
[---]
[C]Headlights searching down the d[G]riveway
[C]The house is dark as it can [D]be
[C]I go inside and all is [Em]silent
And seems as [D]empty as the inside of me
[---]
[C]I've had some time to think [G]about it
[C]And watch the sun sink like a [G]stone
[C]I've had some time to think a[Em]bout you
On the[D] long ride [G]home
[---]
On that [C]long
On the [D]long
On the [C]lo--ng
On the l[D]ong ride [G]home
