The Long Goodbye

	  		 

Intro: (G)  (Em)  (D)  (C)   

(G) I know they say if you love some(Em)body 
You should set them free  
(D) But it sure is hard to (C) do 
Yeah, it sure is hard to do 
(G) I know they say if they don't come (Em) back again 
Then it's meant to be  
(D) But those words don't pull me (C) through 
Cos I'm still in love with (Bb) you 
I spend each (Gm) day here waiting for a (F) miracle 
(Eb) But it's just (Cm) you and me going (Bb) through the mill 
Climbin' (Am) up a hill (D)  

   (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 (G) heart? 
   No matter how hard I try 
   (Em) I always make you cry 
   (D) Come on, baby, it's over, let's face it 
   (C) All that's happening here is a long (G) goodbye (Em)  (D)  (C) 

(G) Sometimes I ask my heart did we (Em) really 
Give our love a chance  
(D) And I know without a (C) doubt 
I turned it inside out 
(G) And if we walked away 
Would it (Em) make more sense  
(D) But it tears me up in(C)side 
Just to think we still could (Bb) try 
How long must (Gm) we keep riding on a (F) carousel 
(Eb) Going round and (Cm) round and never getting (Bb) anywhere? 
On a (Am) wing and prayer (D) 

   (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 (G) heart? 
   No matter how hard I try 
   (Em) I always make you cry 
   (D) Come on, baby, it's over, let's face it 
   (C) All that's happening here is a long (G) goodbye (Em)  (D)  (C)
