G                      Em         D7          G                                                              

Oh, we've come a long way since we last shook hands

  C          D           Em

Still got a long way to go

Am                                  D7

We couldn't see the flowers when we last shook hands

  G               Em         D7             G  D  G

Couldn't see the flowers on account of the snow

What did you do with your burden & your cross

Did you carry it yourself or did you crack

You & I know that a burden & a cross

Can only be carried on one man's back

All my life I wanted to roam

To go to the ends of the earth

But the earth really ends where you started to roam

Cause you & I know what a circle is worth

Lets drink a cup to what went down

There's not much left to reveal

I think I changed my mind after what went down

As to who in the end got the better deal

Give me your hand for the parting touch

Fare thee well & thanks a lot

I know that we promised that we'd keep in touch

But you & I know that we both forgot

Repeat 1st verse twice
