[Verse 1]
[C]Oh,[F][Dm]
[C]no, no, no, no- [F]no
Well, it's been a [Dm]long time,
[C]long time [F]now
Since I've [Dm]seen you [C]smile

[Verse 2]
[F]I w[Dm]onder if Gladys smiles when an
[F]gels bring [C]my name [F]up
Or change language and
subject change [Dm]up
Her boy's a long way from red
[C]dogs and green rangers
[F]Things ain't been the same since Ms.
Patterson called me famous
I saw [Dm]your reflection in a toilet
[C]full of vomit water
You [F]don't think I felt ya hand on my head,
yelling: "Call his father"?
But people [Dm]don't hear ghosts,
[C]so how they gon' play [F]me?
Money saved me,
so I'ma do the same thing
You're [Dm]droppin' pounds,
gettin' small [C]on some sick shit
[F]Like, how you got the drive,
but don't know how to use a stick shift?
You bet[Dm]ter not miss this,
over[C]dose, [Em]dope and mixes
[C]Let ya throat clo[F]se with a boatload
of dope quotes within it
[Bb]Blast [Dm]off

[Verse 3]
Drop[Dm]ping tapes 'til I losted count,
[C]coughing out blood
Dropping [F]weight like I lost an ounce
Throwing words and tossing noun[Dm]s
NY traveling, [C]I'm Boston bound,
bossing [F]'round homies
And talking down to shorties while
I'm jotting down
[Dm]Notes to spit to Harlem crowns
[Em]Surfing [C]through the Harlem crowds
[F]At the crib, I'm falling down
Yeah, I'm steady crawling
'round
[Dm]I'm calling out to God
[Em]Your little [C]angels falling down
[F]Save me from my darkened cloud
Reach your hands and arms
around
[Dm]

[Verse 4]
Oh, non [C]je t'en prie,
nous ne sommes pas chez nous
Oh, je [F]t'assure que ce n'est pas grave
Non laisse- moi!
Mais qu'est- ce que tu as
aujourd'hui?
J'ai que [Dm]les hommes me dégoûtent
Vous ne [C]pensez [F]qu'à ça

[Verse 5]
Well, it's been a [Dm]long time,
[C]long time [F]now
Since I've [Dm]seen you [C]smile
[F]An d I'll gamble away
[Dm]my f[C]righ[F]t
And I'll [Dm]gamble [C]away my [F]time
And in [Dm]a year, a [C]year or [F]so
This will [Dm]slip [C]into [F]the sea
Well, it's been a [Dm]long time,
[C]long time [F]now
(Oh, it's, oh, it's been so long)
Since I've [Dm]seen you smile
[C](It's been so [F]long)

[Verse 6]
Said it's been a [Dm]long time,
[C]long [F]time now, now, now
Said it's been a [Dm]long time, [C]long time [F]now
And it's been a [Dm]long time, [C]long time [F]now[F]
