The verses consist of these same pattern, for simplicity I'm just going to label the
chords D* and A* for the patterns above
D*
Yeah, it's been a lonely road
A*
I've been out singing about love with a heart of stone
D*
That's when the going got tough
A*
I spent some lonely nights on the longest highway home
Chorus:
Em7 G D A
This is the longest highway I've been on
Em7 G D A
On the loneliest day you've ever known
Verse 2:
D*
This one goes out to the fools
A*
All you boys in the back hanging out, you got a love back home
D*
But when you're with your friends
A*
There's no goddamn place in the world that you'd rather be
No!
Chorus:
Em7 G D A
This is the longest highway I've been on
Em7 G D A
On the loneliest day you've ever known
Em7 G D A
When the words that we say keep on coming out wrong
Em7 G D*
On the longest highway home
Bridge:
A
There was nothing I could do or say
Bm-G-A
Those lonely days still bother me
A
There was nothing I could say or do
Bm-G-A
Those lonely nights still bother you
D*
Yeah, it's been a lonely road
A*
I've been out spillin' my guts, but my guts don't know
D*
Feels like the top of the world
A*
But do we want to spend the rest of our lives alone?
Last Chorus: same as before
