text: My soul went walkin but I stayed here
  Feel like I been workin for a thousand years
  Chippin away at this chain of my own lies
  Climbin a wall a hundred miles high
  Well I woke up this morning on the other side
  Yeah yeah this is the long goodbye
  Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
  Same old faces its the same old town
  What once was laughs is draggin me now
  Waitin on rain hangin on for love
  Words of forgiveness from some God above
  Aint no words of mercy comin from on high
  Oh no just a long goodbye
  Yeah yeah just one long goodbye
  Well I went to leave twenty years ago
  Since then I guess I been packin kinda slow
  Sure did like that admirin touch
  Guess I liked it a little too much
  The moon is high and here I am
  Sittin here with this hammer in hand
  One more drink oughta ease the pain
  Starin at that last link in the chain
  Well lets raise our glass and let the hammer fly
  Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
  Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
  Kiss me baby and were gonna fly
  Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
  Yeah yeah this is the long goodbye
  Hey yeah this is the long goodbye
  Kiss me baby cause were gonna ride
  Yeah yeah this is the long goodbye
