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