Longest Time

[Chorus]
 
 A   E   A  D  
 Oh, oh, oh
 E                   A
 For the longest time
 E   A  D
 Oh, oh, oh
 E
 For the longest time
 A      E        D            E
 If you said goodbye to me tonight
 A           E        B             E
 There would still be music left to write
 C#              F#m   
 What else could I do
 E7         A    A7
 I'm so inspired by you
 D          Bm               E       A
 That hasn't happened for the longest time
 
 
 [Verse]
 
 A      E          D             E
 Once I thought my innocence was gone
 A      E        B              E 
 Now I know that happiness goes on
 C#              F#m
 Thats where you found me
 E7                A     A7
 When you put your arms around me
 D        Bm                 E         A
 I havent been there for the longest time
 
 
 [Chorus]
 
 A   E   A  D
 Oh, oh, oh
 E                   A
 For the longest time
 E   A     D
 Oh, oh, oh
 E
 For the longest
 A       E           D              E
 Im that voice youre hearing in the hall
 A       E        B          E
 And the greatest miracle of all
 C#       F#m
 Is how I need you
 E7           A     A7
 And how you needed me too
 D       Bm                  E       A
 That hasnt happened for the longest time
 
 
 [Verse]
 
 E               F#m
 Maybe this wont last very long
     C#7
 But you feel so right
     A
 And I could be wrong
 E              F#m
 Maybe Ive been hoping too hard
 B7      
 But Ive gone this far
         E
 And its more than I hoped for
 
 A         E        D              E
 Who knows how much further well go on
 A      E      B               E   
 Maybe Ill be sorry when youre gone
 C#         F#m
 Ill take my chances
 E7            A    A7
 I forgot how nice romance is
 D        Bm                 E       A  
 I havent been there for the longest time
 
 E            F#m
 I had second thoughts at the start
    C#7
 I said to myself
      A
 Hold on to your heart
 E              F#m
 Now I know the woman that you are
       B7
 Youre wonderful so far
         E
 And its more than I hoped for
 A       E        D               E
 I dont care what consequence it brings
 A       E        B             E
 I have been a fool for lesser things
 C#         F#m
 I want you so bad
 E7          A        A7    
 I think you ought to know that
 D           Bm               E       A
 I intend to hold you for the longest time
