[G]Long before you [Cmaj7]started  [D]lying
[G]Long before you  [Cmaj7]gave up [D]trying
[G]Long before I[Cmaj7]started  [D]crying
[G]oh, I loved you,   [Cmaj7]  I loved [D] you
[G]oh.I loved you [Cmaj7] I loved  [D]you
[G] ///    [Cmaj7] /  [D]/
[G] ///  [G]///

[G]Long before my [Cmaj7]soul  was [D]aching
[G]Long before my [Cmaj7]heart was [D]breaking
[G]Long before those    [Cmaj7] nights of [D]waiting
[G]oh, I loved you,   [Cmaj7]  I loved [D] you
[G]oh.I loved you [Cmaj7] I loved  [D]you
[G] ///    [Cmaj7] /  [D]/
[G] ///  [G]///

Chorus
[C] I never thought this  could [F]happen to [C]me
[C] not at all how I [G] thought it would be
[C]I’ve tried to figure out [F]what went [C]wrong
[C]but its  lonely nights lasting [G] way too [C] long
[C]yeah,  lonely nights lasting [G] way too [C] long



[G]Long before your [Cmaj7]midnight  [D]creeping
[G]Long before you [Cmaj7]were de[D]ceiving
[G]Long before I [Cmaj7]stopped  be[D]lieving
[G]oh, I loved you,   [Cmaj7]  I loved [D] you
[G]oh.I loved you [Cmaj7] I loved  [D]you
[G] ///    [Cmaj7] /  [D]/
[G] ///  [G]///

Chorus
[C] I never thought this  could [F]happen to [C]me
[C] not at all how I [G] thought it would be
[C]I’ve tried to figure out [F]what went [C]wrong
[C]but its  lonely nights lasting [G] way too [C] long
[C]yeah,  lonely nights lasting [G] way too [C] long

[C]  its just lonely nights lasting [G] way too [C] long
[C] its lonely nights lasting [G] way too [C] long
slow
[C] just lonely nights lasting [G] way too [C] long

Re: Lonely Nights Lasting Way too Long

reading this made me very thoughtful. the sentiment is clear, that feeling of being let down by someone you love? you certainly have a way with words and how to describe a feeling. i'm in quiet mode at the moment as Ann is having a nap, but i will give it a go later.

congrats on another cracker.

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.
