The Longest Time Billy Joel
[Intro]
[C]Woah, [G]oh, [Em]oh, [F]oh
[G]For the longest [C]time
[C]Woah, [G]oh, [Em]oh, [F]oh
[G]For the longest
[Verse 1]
[C]If [B]you [Am]said [G]good[F]bye to me to[C]night
[C]There [B]would [Am]still [G]be [Fmaj/F#]music left to [G]write
[E]What else could [Am]I do
[G]I'm so [C]inspired by you
[F]That hasn't [Dm]happened for the [G]longest [C]time
[C]Once [B]I [Am]thought [G]my [F]innocence was [C]gone
[C]Now [B]I [Am]know [G]that [Fmaj/F#]happiness goes [G]on
[E]That's where you [Am]found me
[G]When you put your [C]arms around me
[F]I haven't [Dm]been there for the [G]longest [C]time
[Intro-repeated]
[C]Woah, [G]oh, [Em]oh, [F]oh
[G]For the longest [C]time
[C]Woah, [G]oh, [Em]oh, [F]oh
[G]For the longest
[Verse 2]
[C]I'm [B]that [Am]voice [G]you're [F]hearing in the [C]hall
[C]And [B]the [Am]grea[G]test [Fmaj/F#]miracle of [G]all
[E]Is how I [Am]need you
[G]And how you [C]needed me too
[F]That hasn't [Dm]happened for the [G]longest [C]time
[Bridge 1]
[G]Maybe this won't [Am]last very long
But [B]you feel so right
And [C]I could be wrong
[Em]Maybe I've been h[Am]oping too hard
But [D]I've gone this far
And it's [G]more than I hoped for
[Verse 3]
[C]Who [B]knows [Am]how [G]much [F]further we'll go o[C]n
[C]May[B]be [Am]I'll [G]be [Fmaj/F#]sorry when you're [G]gone
[E]I'll take my [Am]chances
[G]I forgot how [C]nice romance is
[F]I haven't [Dm]been there for the [G]longest [C]time
[Bridge 2]
[G]I had second [Am]thoughts at the start
I [B]said to myself
Hold [C]on to your heart
[Em]Now I know the [Am]woman that you are
You're [D]wonderful so far
And it's [G]more than I hoped for
[Verse 4]
[C]I [B]don't [Am]care [G]what [F]consequence it [C]brings
[C]I [B]have [Am]been [G]a [Fmaj/F#]fool for lesser [G]things
[E]I want you [Am]so bad
[G]I think you [C]ought to know that
[F]I intend to [Dm]hold you for the [G]longest [C]time
[Intro-repeated till fade out]
[C]Woah, [G]oh, [Em]oh, [F]oh
[G]For the longest [C]time
