Brooks & Dunn, The Long Goodbye (2001)
Key: :[G#] (w: Paul Brady, Ronan Keating)
INTRO: [G#] [Fm] [D#] [C#]
VERSE 1:
[G#] I know they say if you love some-
[Fm]-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
[Fm] back again, then it's meant to be
[D#] But those words don't pull me
[C#] through, cause I'm still in love with
[B] you
I spend each
[G#m] day here waiting for a
[F#] miracle
[E] But it's just
[C#m] you and me going
[B] through the mill, climbin'
[Bbm] up a hill
[D#]
CHORUS:
[G#] This is the long goodbye,
[Fm] somebody tell me why
[D#] Two lovers in love can't make it
[C#] Just what kind of
[D#] love keeps breaking a
[G#] heart?
No matter how hard I try,
[Fm] I always make you cry
[D#] Come on, baby, it's over, let's face it
[C#] All that's happening
[D#] here is a long good-
[G#]-bye
[Fm] [D#] [C#]
VERSE 2:
[G#] Sometimes I ask my heart did we
[Fm] 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
[Fm] make more sense
[D#] But it tears me up in-
[C#]-side, just to think we still could
[B] try
How long must
[G#m] we keep riding on a
[F#] carousel
[E] Going round and
[C#m] round and never getting
[B] anywhere?
On a
[Bbm] wing and prayer
[D#]
REPEAT CHORUS:
