And a one, two, a one, two, three.
[E] I [F#m] [B]
[D] [A] [B]
[A] set out on a great adventure
[F#m] The day my father started [E] leading me home
[D] He said there's gonna be some [A] mountains to climb
And some [B] valleys we're gonna go through
[A] But I had no [E] way of knowing
[C#m] Just how hard this [E] journey could be
[D] Cause the valleys are [A] deeper and the mountains are [B] steeper
Than I ever would have dreamed
But [D] I [F#m] know we're gonna [D] make it
And I know we're gonna get there soon
And I know [F#] sometimes it feels like we're going [B] the wrong way
[D] But [Dm] it's just a long [A] way home
[F#m]
[D] [A] I got some rocks in my shoes
[E] Fears I wish I could [F#m] lose
They make the mountains [E] so hard to climb
[D] And my heart [A] gets so heavy
With the [B] weight of the world sometimes
[A] And there's a bag of regrets
I should have been tonight, [F#m] yes
I keep on [E] dragging around
[D] And I can hardly [A] wait
For the day [Bm] I get to lay it all down
But [D] I know [F#m] that day is [D] coming
And I know it's gonna be here soon
And I won't turn back
Even if [F#] the whole world says I'm [B] going the wrong way
[D] Cause it's [Dm] just a long [Bm] way home
When [C#m] we can't take another step
My father [F#m] will pick us up
[E] And carry us [D] in his arms
And even [Bm] on the best days
He says [C#m] to remember we're not home yet
So [F#m] don't get too [B] comfortable
[D] Cause really all we are [Dm] is just pilgrims [A] passing through
[C#m]
[F#m] [E] [D]
[A] [Bm] Hey, yeah, [D] yeah
Well I know [F#m] we're gonna make [D] it
And I know we're gonna get there soon
So I'll keep on singing [B] and believing
What all of our songs say
[D] Cause our God [F#m] has made a promise
[D] And I know that everything he says is true
And I know wherever [B] we go
He will never leave us
[D] Cause he's [Dm] gonna lead [F#m] us home
[E] [D] Every [Dm] single step of the [A] long way
Cause [C#m] we're gonna make [F#m] it
I know [E] we're gonna make [D] it
We're just [Dm] taking the long [A] way home
Keep on, [C#m] we're gonna make [F#m] it

We're [Dm] just taking the long [A] way home
