How long

Song composer: J.D. Souther
Lyrics author: J.D. Souther


Like a blue bird with his heart removed
lonely as a train
F# 
I’ve run just as far as I can run
If I never see the good old days
shinin’ in the sun
F# 
I’ll be doin’ fine and then some
           Abm F# F# 
            How long, how long - woman will you weep
           Abm F# F# 
            How long, how long - rock yourself to sleep
Well I been doin’ time in a lonesome prison
where the sun don’t shine
F# 
Just outside the freedom river runs
Out there in that shiny night
with blood hounds on your mind
F# 
Don’t you know it’s the same sad situation?
           Abm F# F# 
            How long, how long - woman will you weep
           Abm F# F# 
            How long, how long - rock yourself to sleep
Sóló
F# 
B7 
Everybody feels alright you know
heard some poor fool say (Somebody Oooooh)
F# 
Everyone is out there on the loose
Well I wish I lived in the land of fools
no one knew my name
F# 
But what you get is not quite what you choose
           Abm F# F# 
            Tell me, how long, how long - woman will you weep
           Abm F# F# 
            How long, how long - rock yourself to sleep
           Abm F# 
            How long, how long
           Abm C# F# 
            muddy river runs so deep
           Abm F# 
            How long, how long
           F# 
            Good night baby, rock yourself to sleep
           F# 
            Sleep tight baby, rock yourself to sleep
           F# B7 
            b-b-b bye bye baby, rock yourself to sleep
