Intro 
G Bm C D 
G Bm C D 
  
verse 1 
                  G 
I’ve come a long way 
Bm               C  D 
I was a show on ice 
               Em 
Dazzling and brittle 
      G             C#dim C D 
But subject to the sun 

              G 
And then one day 
Bm                  C  D 
I went little by little 
             Em 
Back to the water 
    G                     C#dim C D 
The place where I’d come from 

Pre-Chorus 
            Am 
And I went under 
      Bm               C   D 
Like stones tied in a sack 
             Am 
And I got emptied 
      Bm            C   D 
And started my way back 

 
    G 
My name (It’s got your name on it) 
     D 
My shame (It’s got your name on it) 
     G 
My home (It’s got your name on it) 
             G  C 
Everything I own 
             G          
And all my schemes drowned at the seams 
             C               G 
Have left me fine in my own skin 
                  Am  Eb 
I’ve come a long way 
         G    Bm C D 
Just to begin 


Verse 
                  G 
I’ve come a long way 
Bm                   C     D 
Under the cover of darkness 
               Em 
Trusting a stranger 
    G               C#dim C D 
A boatman at the shore 
                 G 
The scourge of hope 
Bm                C   D 
The ugly face of danger 
                   Em 
The keepers of the keys 
        G           D 
Had me down on my knees 
                        C#dim C D 
In front of the gilded doors 

Pre-Chorus 
          Am               Bm                 C  D 
And in a world where every ax was poised to grind 
            Am               G            C         D 
To find my peace I only held up what was already mine 

 
    G 
My name (It’s got your name on it) 
     D 
My shame (It’s got your name on it) 
     G 
My home (It’s got your name on it) 
             G  C 
Everything I own 
             G                                         C            G 
And all my swords have turned to words that blow like poems in the wind 
                 G 
I’ve come a long way 


Bridge 
G 
I used to be twisted 
            Em 
When you called it an opiate 
Em 
A simple way to cope 
                                C                            G 
And yet I think you shouldn’t skip if you haven’t worn the shoes 
                G 
They start out tight 
                         Em 
And then they hurt your tired feet at night 
                     G              Em 
But then they give a little day by day 
                     Am 
And then before you know it 
                          G 
You look back and you’ve come a long way 

 
    G 
         (It’s got your name on it) 
     D 
My shame (It’s got your name on it) 
     C 
My home (It’s got your name on it) 
            
G 
My name 
D 
My shame 
G 
My home 
   C             Em 
Everything I own 
G 
I’ve got your name on it
