I've been long - A long way from here [Verse]

Put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes (E A

And drank 'til I was thirsty again        x8)

We went searching                       A B

Through thrift store jungles            A B-X

Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo

And Benny Goodman's corset and pen

Well, OK, I made this up              [Intro]

I promised you I'd never give up      E A E A


(If it makes you happy    [Chorus] F#m A  E B

 (It can't be that bad/            F#m A (E A

  Then why the hell are you so sad) x2)  E A)


You get down - Real low down

You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train

Well, who hasn't been there before ══════════

I come round - Around the hard way   If It

Bring you comics in bed,        ║  Makes You

    scrape the mold off the bread    Happy

And serve you French toast again  Sheryl Crow

Well, OK, I still get stoned    ╚════════════

I'm not the kind of gal you'd take home [Cho-

                                         rus]

[Chorus] (C#m C#m F#m F#m - C#m C#m A A)      (E E)


… - … - We've been far - Far away from here

Put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes

And everywhere in between

Well, OK, we get along    [Chorus] (E E) (x2)

So what if, right now,    [Solo - Chorus]

    everything's wrong    ((E A x3) - E)
