Verse
G# C#
The highway 441 don't look much the same
G#
They straightened out all the curves and
C#
turned it four-lane
D#
They by-passed every downtown clear
G# Fm
up to Clayton
A#m D#
We make better time now but damn it's a bore
[Chorus]
C#
So honey, let's take the long way
G#
Hang a hard left and then bare to the right
C#
Hell, I ain't been through Clarksville
G#
Since I was just learnin' to drive
D#
We used to come fish in the creeks around here
A#m
A# few cans of corn and a twelve-pack of beer
D#
We'd walk the banks till it was too dark to see
A#m G# C#
Momma'd be drunk so she's hand me the keys and say
D# G# C#
Go back the long way
G# C#
The long way
[Verse]
G# C#
I used to drive across the gorge every couple weekends
G# C#
Baby sister was just barely walkin' back then
D# G# Fm
I never stayed long 'cause momma made me crazy
A#m D#
I'd hang out until dinner and say I got to go
C#
And I'd head back down the long way
G#
And step off in Demarest [?] I got the urge
C#
To see my old sweetheart
G#
If I's lucky I'd sleep there with her
D#
I swore I loved her but I never did
A#m
I thought I was a man but I's just a kid
D#
Before the Lord brought you into my life
A#m G# C#
I traveled this road but I's lost all the time
D# G# C#
Out on the long way
G# C#
The long way
G# C# Fm
Tiger Mountain ain't far from the house where she died
G# C#
She drifted off in her sleep on a clear Sunday night
D# G# Fm
She called me that day, I said momma I'm busy
A#m D#
I woke up Monday mornin', found out she was gone
[Chorus]
C#
So we went back the long way
G#
It was the only way there used to be
C#
And i's cryin' like a baby
G#
So you did the drive in for me
D#
I'll never forget how gentle you were
A#m
Holdin' my hand, standin' over her
D#
I knew back then you'd be the woman I'd
A#m G# C#
Lovin' you's one thing I don't regret
G# C#
And we've come a long way
G# C#
A# long way
G# C#
The highway 441 don't look much the same
