J.D. Souther      How Long       written by  J.D. Souther
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jd_souther/how_long_crd.html ]
A                                      D
Like a bluebird with his heart removed lonely as a train
     A   D       A   E        A
I've run just as far as I can run
A                                D
If I never see the good old days shining in the sun
A             E             A
I'll be doing fine and then some
    F#m E    D   A                   E
But how long how long woman will you weep
F#m  E   D   A     E                 A
How long how long  rock yourself to sleep
A
You've been doing time in a lonesome prison
D
Where the sun don't shine
A                            E
Just outside a freedom river runs
A
Outside  where it's shinny and night
           D
With those blood hounds on your mind
A                       E               A
Don't you know it's the same sad situation
    F#m E    D   A                   E
But how long how long woman will you weep
F#m  E   D   A     E                 A
How long how long  rock yourself to sleep


SOLO

A                                    D
Everybody seems all right you know I heard some poor fool say
A                            E
Everyone is out there on the loose
  A
I wished I lived in the land of fools  ??
    D
And no-one knew my name
A               E                  A
What you get is not quite what you choose
    F#m E    D   A                   E
But how long how long woman will you weep
F#m  E   D   A     E                 A
How long how long  rock yourself to sleep
F#m E     D   A     F#m   B7            E
How long  how long  muddy river runs so deep
F#m  E   D   A                 E                A
How long how long goodbye baby rock yourself to sleep
A                E                A
Sweet surrender  rock yourself to sleep
A             E               D      A
Bye bye baby  rock yourself to sleep
