[Verse 1]

  F          Cadd11  Dm7       Csus4  Bbmaj7 

I don't know what to say about these days

    F      Cadd11  Dm7      Csus4  Bbmaj7                     

I'm seeing people changing in the strangest ways

  F         Cadd11  Dm7     Csus4                                                                    

Even in the richer neighborhoods

 Bbmaj7                                                                                       

People don't know when they've got it good

        F       Cadd11  Dm7         Csus4  Bbmaj7                                             

They've got the envy,  and they've got it 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            Cadd11  Dm7      Csus4   Bbmaj7                                               

When I was a kid everything I did was trying to be free

 F              Cadd11  Dm7    Csus4         Bbmaj7                                            

Running up and down   Tinsel Town with the fire inside of me

   F        Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4      Bbmaj7                                               

My planet's all in retrograde, the best of all my plans got laid

  F       Cadd11      Dm7     Csus4                                                                    

I made my breaks, and some mistakes

 Bbmaj7                                                                                             

Just not the ones people think I made

[Chorus Tab]

   F       Cadd11    Dm7      Csus4     Bbmaj7

Chorus]

          F   Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4    Bbmaj7 

Now I'm a long         way     gone

          F   Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4  Bbmaj7                                                 

Down this wild       road I'm   on

              F       Cadd11  Dm7     Csus4   Bbmaj7                                

It's going to take me        where I'm    bound

             F   Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4   Bbmaj7                                                                 

But it's the long       way  a-      round


[Instrumental Fill] x2
[Verse 3]

     F       Cadd11  Dm7             Csus4      Bbmaj7                                       

It's so hard keeping track of what's gone wrong

    F   Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4        Bbmaj7                                

The covenant unravels,   and the news just rolls along

        F       Cadd11  Dm7     Csus4   Bbmaj7                                                

I could feel my memory letting go some two or three disasters ago

     F       Cadd11    Dm7      Csus4                                                                     

It's hard to say which did more ill                                         

 Bbmaj7                                 Bbmaj7 

Citizens United or the Gulf oil spill

                                                                                                

[Chorus]

          F   Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4    Bbmaj7 

And I'm a long         way     gone

          F   Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4  Bbmaj7                                                            

Down this wild       road I'm   on

              F       Cadd11  Dm7     Csus4   Bbmaj7                                                   

It's going to take me        where I'm    bound

             F   Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4   Bbmaj7                                                       

But it's the long       way  a-      round
                                           

[Instrumental Fill] x2

[Verse 4]

     F     Cadd11    Dm7     Csus4     Bbmaj7                                                         

It's never been that hard to buy a gun

            F      Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4      Bbmaj7                                                

Now they'll sell a Glock 19 to just about anyone

    F        Cadd11  Dm7    Csus4                                                                        

The seeds of trage- dy are there

   Bbmaj7                                                             

In what we feel we have the right to bear

   F         Cadd11   Dm7     Csus4                                                        

To watch our children come to harm

 Bbmaj7                                                                 

There in the safety of our arms

     F                                                                      

With all we disagree about

    Bbmaj7             A7               F                                         

The passions burn, the heart goes out

[Chorus]                                                                                          

             F   Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4    Bbmaj7 

And we're a long         way     gone

          F   Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4    Bbmaj7                                                         

Down this wild       road we're   on

              F       Cadd11  Dm7     Csus4   Bbmaj7                                

It's going to take us        where we're    bound

             F   Cadd11  Dm7  Csus4   Bbmaj7                                                   

But it's the long       way  a-    round

[Instrumental Fill] x4

[~Outro~] x 8+
