(verse)
D D/C#
I came in off a dead end street
D/B A7
Walked in slow and took a back row seat
D D/C# D/B A7
I knew I had nothing new to say
D D/C#
So many people looking so burned out
D/B A G A
I couldn't help feeling bad about just having to be there anyway
(verse)
A friend of a friend from work came in
I never have known what to make of him
He'd always seemed to be so insincere to me
You know I've always been afraid of a 12 step crowd
They laugh too much and talk too loud
Like they all know where everyone should be
(chorus)
D D/C# D/B
It's been a l---o---n---g
A G
A long long year
D D/C# D/B
Its been a l---o---n---g
A G
A long long year
A
How did I get here
(verse)
They were talking in a circle I was by myself
Everyone was telling everyone how they felt
It felt like so long since I'd been young
As the circle kept moving its way to the back
I was wondering what I was going to say in fact
I still didn't know, as it rolled off my tongue
(
(verse)
I didn't say a word all the way to my car
But a little later on that night at the bar
I was telling everyone how strange my day had been
They say brother all you need is another shot
So I threw one down and said thanks a lot
As I thought to myself, well here we go again

My mp3 of the song ended too soon, and my CD is at work so the
end isn't complete.
The D/C# can be a difficult to play. The pinkie is used to fret
the C# (4th fret A string)
The song could also be played using a capo at 2, then the chords would be
