It's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
But it's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
It's gonna be Bmyou turn back, Gi'ma turn back
ID'ma get my life Aon track
It's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
BmEveryone’s just trying to bGe who they wanna be
And Dafter a while we all get Acaught up in this mystery
Im Bmhustling every day doing Gwhat I wanna
DChasing down a dream tryna Abe the next Madonna
But, BmDon’t you worry girl I'll never Gforget about you
DOut here in the world, man, AI tried to make do
BmI needed you here, I really Gwanted you back
DEven as I stood here, Arecording this track
I was Bmspending every day talking Gto you on the phone
Tryna Dlisten to your voice so AI wouldn’t be alone
But, it Bmwasn’t the same, I Gwished you were here
Every Dnight I must’ve shed a Athousand tears
Every Bmtime I lay down, I caGn feel your heart beat
And wDhen I get in bed i Afeel so incomplete
I’ve Bmseen a million girls but your Gall i desire
You Dknow I tell the truth, Ai ain't no liar
It's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
But it's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
It's gonna be Bmyou turn back, Gi'ma turn back
ID'ma get my life Aon track
It's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
Every Bmday were drifting farther and Gfarther apart
I Ddon’t want to leave you with a Abroken heart
So I’m Bmtrying my best, I’m Gtrying to get home
But I’m Djust one guy, I’m Adoing this on my own
I just Bmwant you to know that I’m Gtrying my best
I’ll Dnever stop, I’ll Anever be at rest
Till I Bmget back home and I Gsee your smile
'cus Dyou’re the one for me, Ayou're just my style
Every Bmsingle night I Gdream of the day
I Dget back home, and Anever drive away
I would Bmknock on your door, you Gwould run to it fast
You would Drun to my arms, A“I’m Home at last”
But it’s Bmjust a dream, it was Gjust in my mind
I wanna Dstop, and turn Gmyself on rewind
To the Bmdays when I was Gback in my town
And when I Dalways wore a smile Ainstead of a frown
It's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
But it's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
It's gonna be Bmyou turn back, Gi'ma turn back
ID'ma get my life Aon track
It's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
For the Bmpast three months GI’ve been stuck in this place
I Dlook what I’ve done and I Atry to retrace
Girl, I Bmwant to escape, I Gwant to break out
Of these Dchains that surround me that are Apulling me down
But I Bmkeep on falling, GI’m feeling the pain
The Dpeople who do this, they Amust be insane
Even Bmif i made a mil Gevery day i wouldn’t care
I Djust wanna lay down and stroke my Afingers through your hair
I Bmrun for the door, but I Gfind that its locked
I'm Dtrapped in here all the Aexits are blocked
The Bmwalls are getting closer, they’re Gclosing in on me
I Dlook around the room, there's Ano way to flee
EverBmyone is running towards me and there Gnot gonna stop
This Dain't what I wanted I Athought I was on top
If they could BmWait For A Minute id Gget where I belong
I’d Dget to your house then AId sing you your song
It's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
But it's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
It's gonna be Bmyou turn back, Gi'ma turn back
ID'ma get my life Aon track
It's gonna be Bmso so Glong D(so Along)
