 The Romany Rye - Long way down
 
 capo 2nd
 
 F                     G  
 I came down the hard way,
   C                         Am   
 With eyes to curse the cruel days
 F                G                C   
 Lips to laugh the whole night, through
 
 F                         G     
 I bought a ladder from a friend,
   C                    Am 
 That said that I could fly
 F               G                C             
 Since my thoughts have turned black as midnight

 F            C         G     F    C    G 
 Cause it's a long way down, long way down
 F     C    G                 F C 
 Long way down, from the bottom
 
 From cheap ritz and burgundy,
 The stale smell of mystery
 I think no one here,
 Is quite what they seem
 
 The siren sings the sweet songs,
 To Judas on the front lawn
 While Dianna's in the bathroom,
 Getting stoned
 
 Cause it's a long way down, long way down
 Long way down, from the bottom
 
 The ghost of Ophellia,
 Said "What you'd like I could steal for ya."
 But what you need,
 you don't cause to think
 
 Now my voice, could never carry
 The lips that gave it wings,
 But my smile could tell a lie
 With no words
 
 Cause it's a long way down, long way down
 Long way down, from the bottom
 
 It's a long way down, long way down
 Long way down, from the bottom
