G                    C
When I first met you I was ready to
G                                 D
Give up this life of drinking and bumming
G                   C
But all my promises
      D           G
Are a long time a'coming

 G        C   D

G                 C
When I look at us, sitting on this bus
G                                D
We're still pulling, we're still struggling
G                            C
Waiting for that lucky break
           D           G       C   D
But it's a long time a'coming

C                      G
Up in the blue beyond, above the great divide
C
Everything can't be wrong
D
Somebody must be getting it right

 G        C        G        D

G                 C
Well I'm still me, and I'll never be
G                     D
A slave to any man or woman
G                                C
Someday you'll be proud of me
           D         G           C
But itís a long time coming
  D           G                  C
A long time a'coming
  D           G                  C
A long time a'coming
  D           G
