wish you gave me a number

                    

wish i could call you today,

               

just to hear a voice.

Riff1  Dadd4        

i got a long way to go

Riff2            

getting further away.

Riff3  


                    

if i didn't know the difference,

                             

living alone would probably be ok.

               

it wouldn't be lonely.

Riff1  Dadd4        

i got a long way to go

Riff2            

getting further away.

Riff3  


                              

a lot of hours to occupy it was easy

                      

when i didn't know you yet,

                     -9

things i'd have to forget.

               

but i better be quiet now,

                     

i'm tired of wasting my breath

                       -9

carrying on, getting upset.


              

maybe i have a problem,

                             

but thats not what i wanted to say.

                

i prefer to say nothing.

Riff1  Dadd4        

i got a long way to go

Riff2            

getting further away.

had a dream as an army man with an order

                   

just to march in my place

                             

but a dead enemy screams in my face

               

but i better be quiet now,

                     

i'm tired of wasting my breath

                       

carrying on, not over it yet.

                         

wish i knew what you were doing.

                         

why you want to do it this way.

                  

so i can't go the distance,

Riff1  Dadd4        

i got a long way to go,

Riff2                     

i'm getting further away.

Riff1  Dadd4        

i got a long way to go

Riff2                

getting further away.

I can't take credit for any of this. All I did was clean it up and post it here. It 
be helpful if you could tell me if anything's wrong with this.
Thanks.
