The Longing

Key: C

Introduction:

                     C 
It's the light you see underneath the door
                   F 
and the shadow of the footsteps on the floor
                                                                     G 
the hang up call that you can't ignore
                     C 
it's the face you cross the room
that makes your heartbeat fast
                   F 
and the room reflection in the bottom of the broken glass
                                           C 
just like the night before
short break
         C 
The noisy clock beside your bed
 F                                                             C 
even with the pillow wrapped around your head
 C 
the voice inside that won't shut up
                                                                   F     G         F 
the pounding in your chest that just won't stop

  It's hard to lose the love we make
               C             G 
can't take the longing
 C                         G                             F 
  We won't forget we might forgive
           C             G               C 
we don't outlive the longing
                     C 
It's the time you spent at the mad in here
                   F 
as you can't go home where you have to face
                                                                                                              C 
the stupid life half lived and the other half not worse living
                   C 
you turn on the light but it's still pitch dark
                   F 
and the writing on the wall is a question mark
           C 
you don't know where and you don't know when
                                                                                 F     G  F 
but if you'll ever have this strange to try again

can't take the longing

  We won't forget we might forgive
         C               G               F 
we don't outlive the longing
         C 
The wanting
             G 
the needing
                                         C                                                           F 
the feeling of the reaching for the rest of your liiiiiiife
 C                           G                             F 
  It's hard to lose the love we make
               C                 G 
can't take the longing
 C                         G                             F
