Why Does It Take So Long?

Written by Josh Engler/Justin Engler/Bryan Fowler/Joshua Silverberg/Dave Vela/Stevan Vela

	  		F 
Why does it take so long for me 
    Dm                      Am 
To know who I want to be, yeah 
     C 
Am I missing something here? 
             F 
I've been an orphan down and out 
      Dm                            Am 
And a king with a calloused heart, yeah 
    C 
But who am I supposed to be 

(Chorus) 
                   F 
I've carried this cross 
                   Dm 
I've been lost and lonely 
                   Am 
I had to walk this world to see 
        C 
That you are where I want to be 
                    F 
And why does it take so long (take so long) 
                    Dm 
And why does it take so long (take so long) 
   Gm          C 
To find my way home 

(F Dm Am  C) 

F 
Why can't I just let it go 
                 Dm                     Am 
I've been fighting with my own soul, yeah 
       C 
It's a fight I'm losing 
F 
But something's gonna turn around 
           Dm                             Am 
I'm on the ropes but don't count me out yet 
                  C 
No don't count me out 


(Chorus) 


Dm                  F 
Am I looking for a sign 
                Gm                   Am 
Looking for something written in the sky 
           Dm 
To show me how 
                    F               Gm    Am 
To get what's in my heart to my head now 
Dm                  Bb9 
Am I looking for a sign 
                Gm                   Am 
Looking for something written in the sky 
           Dm 
To show me how 
                    Bb9               Gm    Am 
To get what's in my heart to my head now 


                  Dm 
I've carried this cross 

I've been lost and lonely 
                   Am 
I had to walk this world to see 
        C 
That you are where I want to be 

                F 
You carried the cross 
                Dm 
For the lost and lonely 
                          Am 
You had to walk this world so I could see 
        C 
That you are where I want to be 

F 
Why did it take so long? (You were here all along) 
Dm 
Why did it take so long? (Even when I was wrong) 
   Gm              C 
To find my way home  (x2) F
