Intro

B A G A x2

B                             A
Early in the morning, about a quarter to four
G                    A
Me and my girlfriend walkin' out the door 
E                             D
We're heading for the car and we got right in
B                             A
And that's when I noticed the shape she was in
E
She turned to me and said right out
B                      A
Let's steer it awhile, let's steer it about

Chorus
D                 A     E
Take the long way home   
D                 A     E 
Take the long way home     Make this night last

B A G A

B                           A
Well we drove down town and up in the woods
G                               A
We drove around and around till I understood
E                        D
I was holding the wheel, she was making out
B                        A
And all this time I was driving about
E
She was fondling my hair and hugging my neck
B                              A
And all I was thinking was, oh what the heck

Repeat Chorus

Solo Break

B A G A x8

B                               A
I was looking in the mirror and to my surprise
          G                  A
There was two big red lights shining in my eyes
E                  D
I pull over and he drove alongside
    B                  A
And out of his car and up to my right
E
He looked at her and she looked at him
B                               A
And the next thing I noticed he got right in
