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