The Long Goodbye Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Em][D][C]
[G][Em][D][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]I know
they say if you love some[Em]body
You should set them [D]free
But it sure is hard to do
[C]It sure is hard to do
[G]I know they say if you don't
come [Em]back again
Then it's meant to be
[D](so they say)
Those words don't pull
[C]me through
'Cause I'm still in love with [Bb]you
I spend each [Gm]day here
waiting for a [F]miracle
[Eb]But it's just you [Cm]and me
goin' [Bb]through the mill
Climbin' [Am]up a hill

[Verse 2]
[G]This is the long goodbye
[Em]Somebody tell me why
[D]Two lovers in love can't make it
[C]Just what kinda love
keeps [D]breaking a heart
[G]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 her[D]e is
[G]a long goodbye
[Em][D][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]Sometimes I ask my heart
did we [Em]really
Give our love a chance
[D](just one more chance)
But I know without [C]a doubt
We turned it [D]in side [G]out
And if we walked away
Would it [Em]make [D]more sense
But it tears me [C]up inside
Just to think we still could try
[Bb]How long must we k[Gm]eep
running on a [F]carousel
[Eb]Goin' 'round and 'roun[Cm]d
and [C]never getting [Bb]anywhere
On a [Am]wing [G]and prayer

[Verse 4]
This is the long [Em]goodbye
Somebody tell me why
[D]Two lovers in love can't make it
[C]Just what kinda love
keeps [D]breaking a heart
[G]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 her[D]e
is a long [G]good[Em]bye

[Verse 5]
Long [D]goodbye
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh,
[C]goo[D]dby[G]e)[Em][D]
[C]Oh-oh, oh
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
[D]Mm, [G]lon[Em]g goodbye
[D](Goodbye)[C][D][G][Em]
[D](Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, goodbye)
Oh, is a long goodbye
