[Verse]
GWe've got the open road
GNothing but blue skies 
CUsed to the summer days
CAnd to the starry nights 
GWe took the long way
GIt was the scenic route 
CYou told me all the things that you could never live without
[Pre-Chorus]
GOh please, won't you leave me to my own thoughts? 
COh no, won't you show me where these paths cross? 
GOh, take all the time that you could ever need 
CI’ll wait in the space where you first left me 
[Chorus]
GYears from now 
CWe'll see exactly how 
DAll of these twists and turns 
CThey wrap me up with you 
GAnd on the way 
CWe'll make the same mistake 
DLearn just how long it takes 
CTo change our point of view

[Intro]

G C

[Verse]

We've got the open road

Nothing but blue skies

Used to the summer days

And to the starry nights

We took the long way

It was the scenic route

You told me all the things that you could never live without

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh please, won't you leave me to my own thoughts?

Oh no, won't you show me where these paths cross?

Oh, take all the time that you could ever need

I’ll wait in the space where you first left me

[Chorus]

Years from now

We'll see exactly how

All of these twists and turns

They wrap me up with you

And on the way

We'll make the same mistake

Learn just how long it takes

To change our point of view

Go through the motions

That's what you tell yourself

Taking the same advice

You gave to someone else

We've reached a crossroad

A split decision

You said you'd play along with only one condition

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh please, won't you leave me to my own thoughts?

Oh no, won't you show me where these paths cross?

Oh, take all the time that you could ever need

I’ll wait in the space where you first left me

[Chorus]

We'll see exactly how

All of these twists and turns

They wrap me up with you

And on the way

We'll make the same mistake

Learn just how long it takes

To change our point of view

We'll see exactly how

All of these twists and turns

They wrap me up with you

And on the way

We'll make the same mistake

Learn just how long it takes

To change our point of view
