Brooks & Dunn, The Long Goodbye (2001)
Key: :[A] (w: Paul Brady, Ronan Keating)
INTRO: [A] [F#m] [E] [D]
VERSE 1:
[A] I know they say if you love some-
[F#m]-body, you should set them free
[E] But it sure is hard to
[D] do, yeah, it sure is hard to do
[A] I know they say if they don't come
[F#m] back again, then it's meant to be
[E] But those words don't pull me
[D] through, cause I'm still in love with
[C] you
I spend each
[Am] day here waiting for a
[G] miracle
[F] But it's just
[Dm] you and me going
[C] through the mill, climbin'
[Bm] up a hill
[E]
CHORUS:
[A] This is the long goodbye,
[F#m] somebody tell me why
[E] Two lovers in love can't make it
[D] Just what kind of
[E] love keeps breaking a
[A] heart?
No matter how hard I try,
[F#m] I always make you cry
[E] Come on, baby, it's over, let's face it
[D] All that's happening
[E] here is a long good-
[A]-bye
[F#m] [E] [D]
VERSE 2:
[A] Sometimes I ask my heart did we
[F#m] really, give our love a chance
[E] And I know without a
[D] doubt, I turned it inside out
[A] And if we walked away, would it
[F#m] make more sense
[E] But it tears me up in-
[D]-side, just to think we still could
[C] try
How long must
[Am] we keep riding on a
[G] carousel
[F] Going round and
[Dm] round and never getting
[C] anywhere?
On a
[Bm] wing and prayer
[E]
REPEAT CHORUS:
