G



Am                                 G

Sweet mountain honey, cool laurel lust

Am                                  G

I'd love to stick around here but I must

Bm                                      Am

get rollin' on east, theres a place for me

             C                     G

down by the sea, thats where I'll be

             F     C       G

watching the cool flowing



So come five o'clock and I'll be gone

with my hat on my head just a travelin' on

trying to catch up with the sun, like a runaway bum

I don't know where I'm from

don't know where I'm going



chorus

Am                                                   G

And its a long way to nowhere but I'm getting there fast

Am                                             G

hard to look to the future when you've got no past

Bm                                     Am

I'm starting to wonder how long I can last

               C

how long I can last

G        F          C

ooh how long will I last?



at times I live my life so recklessly

other times I haven't got a bit to eat

sometimes it feels like one big thrill, a dream fulfilled

its a fabulous pill,until

you really see what your facing



so I've learned how to ramble and I've learned how to roll

I've learned how to handle what this strange world throws

just a piece of advice, you must never think twice

its not always nice, this drifters life

its just a crazy dream I'm chasing



chorus

And its a long way to nowhere but I'm getteing there fast

hard to look to the future when you've got no past

I'm starting to wonder how long I can last

how long I can last

ooh how long will I last?
