Tom : G
G C G C G C Am D G C G C Am D Am D G
[Verse]
G C
I've burned my eyes on the summertime skies
G C
Just travelin' a country mile.
Am D
I've drowned in pain in the winter rain,
Am D G
And the sweetness of a smile.
G C
I've been possessed or maybe been blessed
G C
By the dreams that I can't define.
Am D
But don't you see there's a light in me,
Am D G
And I gotta make it shine.
[Chorus]
Em Bm Am D G
Oh, sweet Mary, Mary don't you know?
Em Am
I may have come a long way,
Am D G
But I've got a long way to go.
[Bridge]
G C G C Am D Am D G
[Verse]
G C
I've been through the fire, I've been down the wire
G C
Just lookin' for my name.
Am D
I've soared as high as the wild birds fly,
Am D G
But I still came down the same.
G C
Now, I may feel just a little more real,
G C
But I'm still more lost than found
Am D
And when day is done, babe, I need someone
Am D G
Just to wrap my love around.
[Chorus]
Em Bm Am D G
Oh, sweet Lucy, Lucy don't you know?
Em Am
I may have come a long way,
Am D G
But I've got a long way to go.
Em Bm Am D G
Oh, sweet Jenny, Jenny don't you know?
Em Am
I may have come a long way,
Am D G
But I've got a long way to go.
[Outro]
Em Am
May have come a long way,
G
But I've got a long way to go.
