How Long

C you were on your own i was on the road Am C you were awful lonesome i was awful cold Am F you wanted love songs but that’s not enough C G F so how long must we punish each other C G C for the sin of falling in love C you were on the phone i was on the floor Am C and the boy was staring out the kitchen door Am F he hears our fighting and he takes it rough C G F so how long must we punish each other C G C for the sin of falling in love C F well there’s a whole lot worse that a man can do C there’s greater crimes for women too F G C than to give the holy power of love a place to stand F now were looking back through a sack of wool C there’s a boy with a stack of reasons to know F G why we cant forgive each other a woman and man C you were in the air i was in the sea Am C boy was in a basket with friends on the beach Am F it don’t take much asking to receive that stuff C G F so how long must we punish each other C G C for the sin of falling in love Am F whoa how long must we punish each other C G C for the sin of falling in love
