Twenty Long Years Chords

[Verse 1]
 
         A             D
I've a tale or two to tell you
         F#m                  B
But the booze just makes me slow
             A                 D
Oh, I could rack my brain remembering
        E                  F#m
But I guess maybe I'll just go
            A             D
There's a method to my madness
           F#m            B
There's a secret to this town
           A                    D
There's a reason why I'm still living here
          E                      F#m
Though I can't think of it right now
 
[Bridge]
 
E                       F#m                 
I made a promise when I left for the coast, 
  A                D
twenty long years ago
E                      F#m            
I made a life out of chasing a ghost, 
   A                     D
twenty years takes its toll
 
[Chorus]
 
Bm                  E             
I got along for a while, I guess, 
        A                 D
but it took everything I had
Bm                  E                
I gotta find a way out of this mess, 
         A                        D  E
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
 
 A          D   F#m           B
 
 A                D     E              F#m

 
[Verse 2]
          A                D
I've a thought or two to share with you
        F#m                     B
But the dope tends to cloud my mind
      A                         D
I destroyed my health searching for myself
           E                     F#m
But there ain't nothing there to find
           A             D
There's a debt or two I owe you
           F#m            B
But the gambling left me poor
       A                            D
Oh, I put up my name in the sacred game
      E                       F#m
And forgot what I was playing for
 
[Bridge]
 
E                       F#m                 
I made a promise when I left for the coast, 
  A                D
twenty long years ago
E                      F#m            
I made a life out of chasing a ghost, 
   A                     D
twenty years takes its toll
 
[Chorus]
 
Bm                  E    
I got along for a while, 
                 A                D

         A                        D  E
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad

[Chorus]
 
Bm                              E    
I gotta find a way out of this mess,

I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
Bm                              E    
I gotta find a way out of this mess, 
         A                      D
I went looking and it drove me mad
Bm                              E    
I gotta find a way out of this mess, 
         A                       D
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
Bm                              E    
I gotta find a way out of this mess, 
         A                      D    E
I ain't never seen you look so sad, yeah
 
B E C#m A
