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