LET'S TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME The Beautiful Girls Lyrics taken from http://www.thebeautifulgirls.com/ Tabbed by Yen Tran Intro: Single strums F Bb So tired of this heavy load. F Bb I've been carrying it for so long. Dm Bb C I don't know what it wants with me. Lord, please let me be. Verse: Strumming pattern (^ - upstroke, v - downstroke, x - palm mute) 1 2 3 4 v x ^ v ^ x ^ F Bb Rolling dice on my hotel room bed. F Bb "Man, it feels so nice to love some one" she said. C Bb F "Cause when the evening comes I'm scared to be bad all by myself." C Bb F And I know exactly how it feels to be by myself. And now she's singing, F Bb "Happiness always scared me half to death. F Bb Never had myself no lovin' to caress." C Bb F Little darling stop those tears and dry your eyes, I'm a be right here. C Bb F And I'd really love to stay tonight, if you'll have me here. Chorus: Same strumming pattern as verse F Bb Oh, oh, oh, oh. F C Little girl you know I love you so. Dm Bb Let's take it easy now and simmer down. C F Little girl, let's take the long way home.
