The Longest Time
Billy Joel
EbOh, Boh, CmohAb
BFor the longest timeEb
BOh, Eboh, Aboh
BFor the longest time
EbIf you Bsaid goodAbbye to me tonEbight
EbThere would Bstill be F7music left to Bwrite
GWhat else could CmI do
B7I'm so inspEbired Eb7by you
AbThat hasn't Fmhappened for the Blongest Ebtime
EbOnce I Bthought my Abinnocence was Ebgone
EbNow I Bknow that F7happiness goes Bon
GThats where you Cmfound me
B7When you put your Ebarms Eb7around me
AbI havent Fmbeen there for the Blongest Ebtime
EbOh, Boh, CmohAb
BFor the longest timeEb
BOh, Eboh, ohAb
BFor the longest
EbIm that Bvoice youre Abhearing in the Ebhall
EbAnd the Bgreatest F7miracle of Ball
GIs how I Cmneed you
B7And how you Ebneeded Eb7me too
AbThat hasFmnt happened for the Blongest Ebtime
GmMaybe this wont Cmlast very long
But D7you feel so right
And EbI could be wrong
GmMaybe Ive been Cmhoping too hard
F7But Ive gone this far
And its Bsus4more than I Bhoped B7for
EbWho knows Bhow much Abfurther well go Ebon
EbMaybe BIll be F7sorry when youre Bgone
GIll take my Cmchances
B7I forgot how Ebnice Eb7romance is
AbI havent Fmbeen there for the Blongest Ebtime
GmI had second Cmthoughts at the start
I D7said to myself
Hold Ebon to your heart
GmNow I know the Cmwoman that you are
Youre F7wonderful so far
And its Bsus4more than I Bhoped B7for
EbI dont Bcare what Abconsequence it Ebbrings
EbI have Bbeen a fooF7l for lesser Bthings
GI want you Cmso bad
B7I think you Ebought to Eb7know that
AbI intend to Fmhold you for the Blongest Ebtime
