[Verse 1]
A E7sus4
Blacking in and out in a strange flat in East London
A6 Dsus2
Somebody I don't really know just gave me something
A E7sus4 A6 Dsus2
To help settle me down and to stop me from always thinking about you
A E7sus4
And you know you're life is heading in a questionable direction
A6 Dsus2
When you're up for days with strangers and you can't remember anything
A E7sus4 A6 Dsus2
Except the way you sounded when you told me you didn't know what I should do
[Chorus]
E E7 Dsus2 E
it's a long road up to recovery from here
E7 Dsus2, A*, A**
A long way back to the light
E E7 Dsus2 E
it's a long road up to recovery from here
E7 Dsus2, A*, A**
A long way to making it right
[Verse 2]
A E7sus4
And so I wake up in the morning just like every other day
A6 Dsus2
And just like every boring blues song I get swallowed by the pain
A E7sus4 A6 Dsus2
So I fumble for your figure in the darkness just to make it go away
A E7sus4
But you're not lying there any longer and I know that that's my fault
A6 Dsus2
So I've been pounding on the floor and I've been crawling up the walls
A E7sus4 A6 Dsus2
And I've been dipping in my darkness for serotonin boosters, cider and some kind of smelling salts
[Chorus]
E E7 Dsus2 E
it's a long road up to recovery from here
E7 Dsus2, A*, A**
A long way back to the light
E E7 Dsus2 E
it's a long road up to recovery from here
E7 Dsus2, A*, A**
A long way to making it right
[Bridge]
F#m Dsus2 A
So on the first night we met, you said well darling let's make a deal
F#m Dsus2 A
If anybody ever asks us, let's just tell them that we met in jail
F#m Dsus2
And that's the story that I'm sticking to like a stoney faced accomplice
A E/G#
But tonight I need to hear some truth if I'm ever getting through this
F#m Dsus2
Yeah, you once sent me a letter that said if you're lost at sea
A E/G#
Close your eyes and catch the tide my dear and only think of me
G Dsus2
Well, darling now I'm was sinking I'm as lost as lost can be
E E7 A
And I was hoping you could drag me up from down here towards my recovery
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
A E7sus4
If you could just give me a sign, just a subtle little glimmer
A6 Dsus2
Some suggestion that you'd have me if I could only make me better
A E7sus4 A6 Dsus2
Then I would stand a little stronger as I walk a little taller all the time
A E7sus4
Because I know you are a cynic but I think I can convince you
A6 Dsus2
Yeah, cause broken people can get better if they really want to
A E7sus4 A6 Dsus2
Or at least that's what I have to tell myself if I am hoping to survive
[Chorus]
E E7 Dsus2 E
it's a long road up to recovery from here
E7 Dsus2, A*, A**
A long way back to the light
E E7 Dsus2 E
it's a long road up to recovery from here
E7 Dsus2, A*, A**
A long way to making it right
[Outro]
E
So, darling, sweet lover, won't you help me to recover
Dsus2
Darling, sweet lover, won't you help me to recover
E
Darling, sweet lover, won't you help me to recover
Dsus2 A
Darling, sweet lover, one day this will all be over
