Long Long Time ( STEVE DAFOE 2004) (COPYRIGHTED) Intro: E, G, Fmaj7 E, G, Fmaj7 E, G, Fmaj7 Verse A A Em You set off to follow your dream. A Em I didn't think that you'd really go. A Em Young, restless, and full of steam. A Em You just showed how little I know. Chorus E G Fmaj7 It's been a long, long, time. E G Fmaj7 It's been a long, long, time. E G Fmaj7 Since I last saw you, why? E G Fmaj7 Since I last saw you, why? G6 Fmaj7 Why, oh why? Verse B A Em Dreams often die a slow death. A Em Life doles pain to even the best. A Em But you know I'm not like the rest. A Em No judgment, just come back to the nest. A Em No judgment, just come back to the nest. Chorus E G Fmaj7 It's been a long, long, time. E G Fmaj7 It's been a long, long, time. E G Fmaj7 Since I last saw you, why? E G Fmaj7 Since I last saw you, why? G6 Fmaj7 Why, oh why? Verse C A Em The years pass slowly at best. A Em Your L.A. life suits you just fine. A Em I've moved on, become one of the rest. A Em Dreams die hard, just like mine. Chorus E G Fmaj7 It's been a long, long, time. E G Fmaj7 It's been a long, long, time. E G Fmaj7 Since I last saw you, why? E G Fmaj7 Since I last saw you, why? G6 Fmaj7 Why, oh why? G6 Fmaj7 Why, oh why? G6 Fmaj7 Why, oh why?
