[Intro]
Em       D       G   
Em       D       G  

[Verse 1]
          D              C        G
I've been searchin', and you been gone
                    D                    C               G
I'm lookin' for the shortest path to the one that you're on.
             C                  D
I've already seen all I want to see
                    Em          C                    G
Can always take the long cut, I think that's what we need

             D             C      G
When we were younger, and we were strong
              D           C              G
It felt a lot better, the things that we done
               C             D
Now if it's to be, refuse to believe

[CHORUS]
                    Em          C                    G
Can always take the long cut, I think that's what we need
                    Em          C             G
D'ya wanna take the long cut, we'll get there eventually

[SOLO]
Em       D       G
Em       D       G

          D {pause}       C       G
I've been searching, and you been gone
                    D                    C               G
I'm looking for the shortest path to the one that you're on.
               C             D
Now if it's to be, refuse to believe

[CHORUS]
                    Em          C                    G
Can always take the long cut, I think that's what we need
                    Em           C                  G
'Cause we been in a deep rut, and it's been killing me
                    Em          C              G

*(Rhythm guitar riff: as close as I can tell is an open G chord with an
open B string with the innards of a C chord hammered-on (Strumming centers
on the middle strings, so you can actually not even finger the G chord,
just deaden all but the D, G and B strings):
