How Long - Eagles
[Intro]
[C] [F] [C] [F] [C] [G]
[Verse 1]
[C] Like a blue bird with his heart removed, [F] lonely as a train
[C] I've run [F] just as [C] far as I [G] can run [C]
[C] If I never see the good old days [F] shinin' in the sun
[C] I'll be doin' [G] fine and then some [C]
|[Chorus]
|[Am] How [G] long, [F] how [C] long
|Woman will you [G] weep
|[Am] How [G] long, [F] how [C] long
|[G] Rock yourself to sleep [C]
[Verse 2]
[C] Well I been doin' time in lonesome prison, [F] where the sun don't shine
[C] Just outside, the freedom river runs [G]
[C] Out there in that shiny night, [F] with blood hounds on your mind
[C] Don't you know it's the [G] same sad situa[C]tion?
[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
[C] [F] [C] [F] [C] [G]
[Verse 3]
[C] Everybody feels alright you know, I [F] heard some poor fool say (Somebody Ooooo)
[C] Everyone is out there on the loose [G]
[C] Well I wish I lived in the land of fools, [F] no one knew my name
[C] But what you get is [G] not quite what you [C] choose
|[Chorus]
|Tell me, [Am] how [G] long, [F] how [C] long
|Woman will you [G] weep
|[Am] How [G] long, [F] how [C] long
|[G] Rock yourself to sleep [C]
[Outro]
[Am] How [G] long, [F] how [C] long (long and drawn out)
[Am] Muddy [D] River runs so [G] deep
[Am] How [G] long, [F] how [C] long (long and drawn out)
[C] Good night baby, [G] rock yourself to sleep,
[C] Sleep tight baby, [G] rock yourself to sleep,
[C] B-B-B Bye bye baby, [G] Rock yourself to [F] sleep [C]
