"THE LONG GOODBYE"
[Vers 1]
G
I know they say if you love somebody
Em
You should set them free (so they say)
D
But it sure is hard to do
C G
Yeah, it sure is hard to do
G
And I know they say if they don't come back again
Em
Then it's meant to be (so they say)
D
But those words ain't pulling me through
C
Cos I'm still in love with you
F
I spend each day here waiting for a miracle
D#
But it's just you and me going through the mill
A#
(climbin' up a hill)
[Chorus]
G
This is the long goodbye
Em
Somebody tell me why
D
Two lovers in love can't make it
C
Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart?
G
No matter how hard I try
Em
You're gonna make me cry
D
Come on, baby, it's over, let's face it
C D G
All that's happening here is a long goodbye
[Vers 2]
G
Sometimes I ask my heart did we really
Em
Give our love a chance (just one more chance)
D
And I know without a doubt
C
I turned it inside out
G
And if we walked away
Em
Would make more sense (only self defense)
D
But it tears me up inside
C
Just to think we still could try
F
How long must we keep riding on a carousel
D# A#
Going round and round and never getting anywhere?
(on a wing and prayer)
[Chorus]
G
This is the long goodbye
Em
Somebody tell me why
D
Two lovers in love can't make it
C
Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart?
G
No matter how hard I try
Em
You're gonna make me cry
D
Come on, baby, it's over, Let's face it
C D G
All that's happening here is the long goodbye
[Chorus x2]
