[Am] [D]
[G] [C] Oh, we've come a long way [G] since we [C] lashed our cans, [F] and we've still [G] got a long [Am] way to go.
[Dm]
Couldn't see the flowers when we [G] lashed our cans, [D]
couldn't see [C] the flowers [G] on account of the [C] snow.
What did you do [G] with your burden [C] and your cross?
[F] Did you manage [G] it yourself [Am] or did you crash?
[D] We [Dm]
both know that a [G] burden and a cross [C] can only be [G] carried on one [C] man's back.
All my [G] life I wanted [C] to roam, [F] to go [G] to the ends [Am] of the earth.
But the [Dm] earth really ends where you started [G] to roam, [C] and you and I know [G] what a circle [C] is for.
So let's drink a cup [G] to what [C] went down, [F] it's not [G] much left [Am] to reveal.
[D] I think [Dm] I changed my mind after what [G] went down, [C] less to do in the end, [G] not the [C] better deal.

[C] Oh, we've come a long [G] way since we [C] lashed our cans, [F] and we've [G] still got a long way [Am] to go.
