Very fast strumming. Intro: G-Em-C-G Verse 1: G You're no longer seventeen C And life it ain't no movie screen Em D Bullet doesn't seem so mean no more G Now you're standing at the dance C No one taught you 'bout romance Em D Taking second glances at the door Chorus: G Em It's a long way home C You see the finish line G Gets further all the time G Em It's a long way home C You're on your own G You're all alone Verse 2: G St. Peter sitting at the bar C Whiskey sour, big cigar Em D He don't care which kind of harm you feed on G He's sitting with St. Augustine C Bleeding heart of Grenadine Em D He don't even know which side he's on Chorus Verse 3: G Now you're at the pearly gates C Reminding Peter of the stakes Em D He swears he's never bet the ace of hearts G You try to learn right from wrong C In church you sing the gospel song Em D They were stringing you along from the start Chorus x2 Official Website: www.romimayes.com
