[INTRO]
[Abm] [Am] [D7] [G]
[VERSE 1]
Well, we [C]come a long way since we [G]last shook [C]hands
Well, we [F]still got a [G]long way to [Am]go
[Dm]Couldn’t see the flowers when we last shook [G]hands
[C]Couldn’t see the flowers on ac[G]count of the [C]snow
[VERSE 2]
What did you do with your [G]burden and your [C]cross
Did you [F]manage it your[G]self or did you [Am]crack
[Dm]We both know that a burden and a [G]cross
Can [C]only be carried on [G]one man’s [C]back
[VERSE 3]
All my life I [G]wanted to [C]roam
To [F]go to the [G]ends of the [Am]earth
But the [Dm]earth really ends where you started to [G]roam
And [C]you and I know what a [G]circle is [C]worth
[VERSE 4]
Let’s drink a cup to [G]what went [C]down
There’s [F]not much [G]left to re[Am]veal
I [Dm]think I changed my mind after what went [G]down
As to [C]who in the end got the [G]better [C]deal

Give me your hand for the [G]parting [C]touch [F]
Fare thee [G]well, thanks a [Am]lot
I [Dm]know that we promised to keep in [G]touch
But [C]you and I know that we [G]both for[C]got
[VERSE 6]
