Letra de Long Strange Golden Road



INTRO:

Cm Bb Cm Bb Cm Bb Cm Bb



VERSE:

Cm Eb

I was longing to be wooed

Ab Cm

I was ready to be humbled

Ab Cm

by the words that you had written

Bb Ab

by the syllables you mumbled

Cm Eb

yeah, I was ready in my heart

Ab Cm

to have my heart invaded

Ab Cm

by the fervour of your passion

Bb Ab

yes, I came to be persuaded





VERSE:

Cm Eb

But when I heard your ragged voice

Ab Cm

something switched in my perception

Ab Cm

and I knew I was the victim

Bb Ab

of a beautiful deception

Cm Eb

all my once exact beliefs

Ab Cm

like tangled threads unravelled

Ab Cm

I walked out, stunned and liberated

Bb Ab

and so began my travels





CHORUS:

Ab Eb

Keep the river on your right

Bb Cm

and the highway at your shoulder

Ab Eb Bb

and the front line in your sights, pioneer

Ab Cm

Keep your eye on the road

Bb Cm

remember what you told her

Ab Fm Cm

this is all in code, my dear





VERSE:

Cm Eb

You better get yourself a coat

Ab Cm

said the handsome taxi driver

Ab Cm

and he sighed like seven bridges

Bb Ab

like a natural-born survivor

Cm Eb

as we drove into the night

Ab Cm

I could feel the forest jangling

Ab Cm

all the choices laid before me

Bb Ab Eb

and their consequences dangling





VERSE:

Cm Eb

We came upon a stricken ship

Ab Cm

that must have once been splendid

Ab Cm

the captain as he died said

Bb Ab

"Boys, our revels now are ended"

Cm Eb

I heard a wild holy band

Ab Cm

playing jazz that was outrageous,

Ab Cm

that recalled the days of rapture

Bb Ab

when our love was still young and contagious





CHORUS:

Ab Eb

Keep the river on your right

Bb Cm

and the highway at your shoulder

Ab Eb Bb

and the front line in your sights, pioneer

Ab Cm

Keep your eye on the road

Bb Cm

remember what you told her

Ab Fm Cm

this is all in code, my dear





VERSE:

Cm Eb

In a dim-lit motel room

Ab Cm

two sad lovers were discoursing

Ab Cm

on the dignity of exile

Bb Ab

and the merits of divorcing

Cm Eb

she said "all certainty is gone"

Ab Cm

but he leapt up, still denying,

Ab Cm

cried "I won't believe the flame I lit

Bb Ab

is dead or even dying"





VERSE:

Ab Cm Eb

She left him drooling in the dust

Ab Cm

and with rucksack packed begun her

Ab Cm

bitter journey to the border

Bb Ab

which is where I wooed and won her

Cm Eb

she was Aphrodite, Helen, Thetis,

Ab Cm

Eve among the satyrs

Ab Cm

She was Venus in a v-neck sweater

Bb Ab

she was all that ever mattered

CHORUS:

Ab Eb

Keep the river on your right

Bb Cm

and the highway at your shoulder

Ab Eb Bb

and the front line in your sights, pioneer

Ab Cm

Keep your eye on the road

Bb Cm

remember what you told her

Ab Fm Cm

this is all in code, my dear





VERSE:

Cm Eb

Like Dean Moriarty's ghost

Ab Cm

I came in quest of secret knowledge

Ab Cm

in the winter of my journey

Bb Ab

to a crumbling Druid college

Cm Eb

there I read the books of lore

Ab Cm

and contemplated in seclusion

Ab Cm

but I took my leave embittered,

Bb Ab

still in love with my illusions





VERSE:

Ab Cm Eb

In the drizzling Irish rain

Ab Cm

as a tender dawn was breaking

Ab Cm

in a doorway I stood spellbound by

Bb Ab

the ancient music they were making

Cm Eb

I took my breakfast with the Gods

Ab Cm

on a blushing summer morning

Ab Cm

till a wind blew them all away

Bb Ab

I had misread every warning





CHORUS:

Ab Eb

Keep the river on your right

Bb Cm

and the highway at your shoulder

Ab Eb Bb

and the front line in your sights, pioneer

Ab Cm

Keep your eye on the road

Bb Cm

remember what you told her

Ab Fm Cm

this is all in code, my dear







VERSE:

Cm Eb

Under cold electric light

Ab Cm

I watch the scenes mutating

Ab Cm

like an old time frontier ballad

Bb Ab

or a carousel rotating

Cm Eb

As if in a moment from a film

Ab Cm

with astonishing precision

Ab Cm

the camera zooms in close

Bb Ab

and a figure comes into vision





VERSE:

Cm Eb

I'm in Tokyo, it's dawn

Ab Cm

and it's raining hallelujahs

Ab Cm

down the bright-lit neon canyons

Bb Ab

along the sidewalks of Shibuya

Cm Eb

I'm trying to take a stance

Ab Cm

and rise above my contradictions

Ab Cm

but I'm just a bunch of words in pants

Bb Ab

and most of those are fiction





CHORUS:

Ab Eb

Keep the river on your right

Bb Cm

and the highway at your shoulder

Ab Eb Bb

and the front line in your sights, pioneer

Ab Cm

Keep your eye on the road

Bb Cm

remember what you told her

Ab Fm Cm

this is all in code, my dear





CHORUS:

Ab Eb

Keep the river on your right

Bb Cm

and the highway at your shoulder

Ab Eb Bb

and the front line in your sights, pioneer

Ab Cm

Keep your eye on the road

Bb Cm

remember what you told her

Ab Fm Cm

this is all in code, my dear
