How Long

[Intro]
Gm

[verse 1]
               Gm
Try to play it cool, I like you
                Gm
Have me in your hand just like that
            Cm
Wish I never told ya, it's killin' me to
       Gm
Wonder
                           Gm
You give, you give me empty promises of
Love
          Cm
You're an honest man when you're drunk
            Eb
Wish I never asked ya, but it's killin'
     F
Me to wonder

    Gm
How long? How long?

[chorus]
         Gm
How, how long have you loved another
          Gm
While I'm dreamin' of us together?
            Cm
She got the best of you
Cm
Part of me always knew
         Eb
How, how long have you tried to end it
          F
While I'm blamin' myself to fix it?
    Gm
How long? (how long?)
    Gm
How long?

[verse 2]
             Gm
Listen to my fears, not my friends
                    Gm
They don't tell the truth, they like you
            Cm
Wish I never told ya, it's killin' me to
       Gm
Wonder
                            Gm
You give, you give me empty promises of
Love

You're an honest man when you're drunk

How long? (how long?)

[bridge]
Gm
  I know love isn't fair
Gm                             Cm
I know the heart wants what it wants
Cm
There's no way to prepare
Cm                       Eb
For burning, brutal rejection
Eb
I know it takes some time
F                             Gm
To feel the pain of losin' a lie

[chorus]
