Long, Long Time

D     E    F#m   D  
Love will abide  
     E        A 
Take things in stride   
D        E7        F#m          
Sounds like good advice 
      B7            E 
But there's no one at my side 
     D     E     F#m   D      E        A 
And time washes clean love's wounds unseen  
   D   E7           F#m   F#m7    
That's what someone told me 
   B7                 E7 
But I don't know what it means 

Refrain 

       D    E7         A               
Cause I've done everything 
F#m     F#m7     D 
I know to try and make you mine 
       A        E     F#m      D        A     E    A        
And I think I'm gonna love you   for a long, long time 
D      E      F#m     D       E         A 
Caught in my fears, blinking back the tears   
    D    E7     F#m F#m7          B7           E 
I can't say you hurt me when you never let me near 
    D E     F#m  D       E         A 
And I never drew one response from you  
D       E7       F#m  F#m7  B7             E7 
All the while you fell over girls you never knew  

Refrain 

       D    E7         A               
Cause I've done everything 
F#m     F#m7     D 
I know to try and make you mine 
       A        E     F#m      D        A     E    A        
And I think I'm gonna love you   for a long, long time 
D    E       F#m D     E    A 
Wait for the day   you go away   
 D       E7       F#m  F#m7        B7                E 
knowing that you warned me of the price I'd have to pay 
    D       E      F#m  D      E         A 
And life's full of loss,  who knows the cost  
D      E7     F#m    F#m7    B7             E7 
Living in the memory of the love that never was 
        D        E        A              F#m       
'Cause I've done    everything I know 
F#m7        D 
To try and change your mind 
       A        E       F#m      F#m7      A      E   A    F#m 
And I think I'm   gonna miss you    for a long, long time 
       A        E     F#m      D        A     E    A        
And I think I'm gonna love you   for a long, long time 
D    E       F#m D     E    A 
Wait for the day   you go away   
 D       E7       F#m  F#m7        B7                E 
knowing that you warned me of the price I'd have to pay 
    D       E      F#m  D      E         A 
And life's full of loss,  who knows the cost  
D      E7     F#m    F#m7    B7             E7 
Living in the memory of the love that never was 
        D       E      A 
'Cause I've done everything I know  
    A7                 D   Dm7 
To try and make you mine, 
        A       E       F#m       D        A     E     A 
And I think I'm   gonna love you    for a long, long time
