Cheryl Wheeler - But The Days And Nights Are Long
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: G C Dsus2
G
Well, life is short
C ~ Dsus2
But the days and nights are long
G
And time will heal all these wounds some day soon
C Em Dsus2
I'll be rising, I'll be strong
C Cadd9 D Em
But now I'm losing all my battles
C Cadd9 Dsus2
Now I'm down and dropping still
G
And this snow's blowing through like some ghost
C Em Cadd9 Dsus2
With this blue I know too well
G
Broken hearts
C ~ Dsus2
Keep on beating just the same
G
So I guess I can too, go through these moves
C Em Dsus2
Facing forward, walking straight
C Cadd9 D Em
But now my glance keeps drifting downward
C Cadd9 Dsus2
Now my feet can't find their way
G
And this cold's creeping in through my bones
C Em Dsus2 G
Whispering, it's here to stay
INSTRUMENTAL: G C D G C D
G
I'll bide my time
C ~ Dsus2
Like there's any other way
G
It moves too slow, moves too fast, it's gone and past
C Em Dsus2
And stopped entirely today
C Cadd9 Dsus2 Em
I know there's light on some horizon
C Cadd9 Dsus2
But I can't see so far ahead
G
Patience and grace, blessed is love, I'm loosing my faith
C Em
In most of that stuff those wise men said
G D C Em Dsus2
Most of that stuff those wise men said
OUTRO:
G
Life is short
C
But the days and nights are long
