It's been a [A]long day living with this

I took a [A]long walk straight back home
I could have [F#m]walked back [E]to San [D]Francisco
I used to [A]long for a time alone
I used to [F#m]long for [E]a place [D]of my own
Now I'm [A]losing faith in everything
I'm [F#m]lost, so [E]lost, I'm [D]lost at sea, you see
