Long Time by Yonder Mountain String Band
Capo II
Standard Tuning
Intro
D G
D C
Every time I walk into my room,
I see you sitting there,
G Em A
and I hope that today will be the day, nothing to fear
C D G (F#) Em
And I've told myself so many times to wait for it to come,
C D G
but if I wait too long, I may forget you
Often times I'll analyze and criticize in my mind,
telling friends that this nonsense can't be what they want to hear
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/y/yonder_mountain_string_band/long_time_crd.html ]
But at least they have something to say,
My own mind will ring in dull,
That's why if I wait too long, I may forget you
C D
It's been such a long time,
G Em
I know it's sad but true,
C D
Such a long time,
G Em
Since I've had something to say,
C D
Such a long time,
G Em C D
I don't even know what I'm even looking for,
C Em Am
How can I find what I cannot see?
C D G
If I wait too long, I may forget you
(interlude)
Lately it seems that I've been thinking 'bout you every day,
But I can't seem to get the courage to open up to you,
And I bet that if I can, things would be better I am sure,
That's why if I wait too long, I may forget you
It's been such a long time,
I know it's sad but true,
Such a long time,
Since I've had something to say,
Such a long time,
Now that I've found what's been stuck in my mind,
I promise I will be back real soon
If I wait too long, I may forget you
(short interlude)
It's been such a long time,
I know it's sad but true,
Such a long time,
Since I've had something to say,
Such a long time,
Now that I've found what's been stuck in my mind,
I promise I will be back real soon
If I wait too long I may forget you...
