Long Time

[Intro ]
G  Bm  C  G  Am G  Am 


[Verso 1]
 
G          Bm            C           G 
 All those books that you left with me now lay 
Am                         G 
Scattered amongst these rooms 
G               Bm          C        G 
And marked with pen are the passages then that 
Am             G           Am  G 
 You felt spoke the truth 
 


[Verso 2]
 
G               Bm     C            G 
I could use you now to guide me somehow or to 
Am                 G 
 Walk me down that aisle 
           G          Bm             C           G 
But I will not be the first you will miss giving birth 
                 Am            G 
This will be your seventh grandchild 
 


[Refrão]
 
G           Am   G 
It's been a long time 
G           Am   G 
It's been a long time 
 


[Verso 3]
 
G            Bm     C              G 
Got your old 45s on the turn table while 
      Am                    G 
I go thumbing through those pages 
          G        Bm        C                  G 
All those old photographs of days we cant's get back still 
Am                  G 
People sing your praises 
 


[Refrão]
 
             Am  G 
It's been a long time 
            Am   G 
It's been a long time 
 


[Verso 4]
 
   G             Bm        C               G 
I wish you could meet all the ones that we love 
  Am                           G 
Still they see you through the past 
      G            Bm       C          G 
But I cannot describe the way that you smile 
      Am              G 
Or the beauty of your laugh 
 


[Refrão]
 
             Am  G 
It's been a long time 
            Am    G 
It's been a long time
