G
Long Black Limousine
G
Shiniest car I've ever seen
C
The back seat is nice and clean
G
She rides as quiet as a dream
D                          C             G
Someone dug a hole six long feet in the ground
  D                         C              G
I said goodbye to you and I threw my roses down
G     D                          C            G
Ain't nothing left at all in the end of being proud
G       C                        D
With me riding this car, and you flying through the clouds
---
C                           G
I've had some time to think about it
C                             G
And watch the sun sink like a stone
C                            Em
I've had some time to think about you
      D          G
On the long ride home

G
One day I took your tiny hand
G
Put your finger in the wedding band
C
Your daddy gave a piece of land
G
We laid ourselves the best of plans
D                              C              G
Forty years go by with someone laying in your bed
D                                 C                G
Forty years of things you say you wish you'd never said
    D                                   C             G
How hard would it have been to say some kinder words instead
C                             D
I wonder as I stare up at the sky turning red
----
C                           G
I've had some time to think about it
C                             G
And watch the sun sink like a stone

C                              G
Headlights searching down the driveway
C                           D
The house is dark as it can be
C                      Em
I go inside and all is silent
             D
And seems as empty as the inside of me
---
C                           G
I've had some time to think about it
C                             G
And watch the sun sink like a stone
C                            Em
I've had some time to think about you
      D          G
On the long ride home

On that long

On the long ride home
