LONG AWAY
(Brian May/Queen. From the Albumn _A Day at the Races_.)
E7sus4 = 022230
[1]
A E D A E
You might believe in heaven, I would not care to say
A E D A
For every star in heaven, there's a sad soul here today
D Bm
Wake up in the morning with a good face
E A
stare at the moon all day
D Bm
Lonely as a whisper on a star chase
E E7sus4
does anyone care anyway?
A E
For all the prayers in heaven
D F A E D E7sus4 A
so much of life's this way
[Chorus:]
A
Did we leave our way behind us?
(A)
Such a long, long way behind us?
D
Who knows when, now who knows where?
A
Where the light of day might find us?
D7 A
Look for the day.
Take heart, my friend, we love you
though it seems like you're alone
A million lights above you
smile down upon your home
Hurry put your troubles in a suitcase
Come let the new child play
Lonely as a whisper on a star chase
I'm leaving here, I'm gone away
For all the stars in heaven
D F A
I would not live, I could not live, this way
A
Did we leave our way behind us?
Such a long, long time behind us?
D
Leave it for some hopeless lane
A
Such a long, long way
Such a long, long way
A7
Such a long, long way
A D F A
I'm looking for, still looking for that day
