The Long Goodbye Capo 1

[INTRO] 
G Em7/B D Cadd9     G Em7/B D Cadd9

[Verse 1]
G                               Em7/B
 I know they say if you love somebody, you should set them free,
D                      Cadd9               G
 But it sure is hard to do, sure is hard to do,
                                 Em7/B
 I know they say if it don’t come back again, then it’s meant to be,
D                         Cadd9                           A#
 Those words don’t pull me through, I’m still in love with you


[Pre-chorus]
                                    F
 I spend each day here waiting for a miracle,
D#                             A#                         Em7
 But it’s just you and me going through the mill, climbing up a hill,


[CHORUS]
G                       
 This is the long goodbye,
Em7/B                 D
 Somebody tell me why, two lovers in love can't make it?
Cadd9                                     G
 Just what kind of love keeps breaking our heart?
                          Em7/B
 No matter how hard I try, I always make you cry,
D
 Come on, baby it’s over let’s face it,
Cadd9                D              G       Em7/B D Cadd9 
 All that’s happening here is a long goodbye.


[VERSE 2]
G                               Em7/B
 Sometimes I ask my heart did we really give our love a chance?
D                     Cadd9                      G
 But I know with out a doubt, we turned it inside out,
                               Em7/B
 And if we walked away would it make more sense?
D                    Cadd9                              A#
 But it tears me up inside, just to think we still could try.


[Pre-chorus]
                                   F          D#
 How long must we keep running on a carrousel, going round and round
                  A#             Em7
 And never getting anywhere, on a wing and prayer


[[Chorus]
G                       
 This is the long goodbye,
Em7/B                 D
 Somebody tell me why, two lovers in love can't make it?
Cadd9                                     G
 Just what kind of love keeps breaking our heart?
                          Em7/B
 No matter how hard I try, I always make you cry,
D
 Come on, baby it’s over let’s face it,
Cadd9                D                  G   Em7/B
 All that’s happening here is a long goodbye.
