Chorus
Its been too long
You're too far away
You're too far gone
You have lost your way
Like a cat out in the alley, like a dog without a bone
You've been chasing down the valley, searching for your throne
When the smoke has vanished and your dreams have died
All your hope has been banished so you hang your head and cry
repeat chorus
You've been up and down the highway, but you haven't found your soul
Looking for a big new play and some luck to call your own
So you hocked your last guitar and your cards are on the table
Lost and wandering where you are, you'll do better when your able
repeat chorus
When the last race is run and the final die is cast
Looks like you weren't the lucky one, looks like you finished last
So you open up a bottle and have yourself a smoke
Bad fortune is your motto, the noose is in your rope
