Last night I stood at your doorstep
Trying to figure out what went wrong
Em7
You just slipped somethin' into my palm
G D
Then you were gone
G
I could smell the same deep green of summer
Above me the same night sky was glowin'
Em7 G D
In the distance I could see the town where I was born
G
It's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty Darling, don't wait up for me
Em7
Gonna be a long walk home
G D
A long walk home
G
In town I passed Sal's grocery
The barbershop on South Street
Em7
I looked into their faces
G D
They were all rank strangers to me
G
The veterans' hall high up on the hill
Stood silent and alone
Em7
The diner was shuttered and boarded
G D
With a sign that just said "gone"
G
It's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty Darling, don't wait up for me
Em7
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty Darling, don't wait up for me
G D
It's gonna be a long walk home
D
Here everybody has a neighbor
Am
Everybody has a friend
D
Everybody has a reason to begin again
G
My father said "Son, we're lucky in this town
It's a beautiful place to be born
Em7
It just wraps its arms around you
G D
Nobody crowds you, nobody goes it alone.
G
That you know flag flying over the courthouse
Means certain things are set in stone
Em7 G D
Who we are, what we'll do and what we won't."
G
It's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty Darling, don't wait up for me
Em7
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty Darling, don't wait up for me
G D
It's gonna be a long walk home
