Longest Time

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