Intro: Am C F C F C G C
Like a blue bird with his heart removed
F
lonely as a train
C F C G C
I`ve run just as far as I can run
If I never see the good old days
F C
shinin` in the sun
G C
I`ll be doin` fine and then some
Am G F C
How long how long
G
Woman will you weep
Am G F C
How long how long
G F C
Rock yourself to sleep
F
Well I been doin` time in lonesome prison
where the sun don`t shine
C G
Just outside the freedom river runs
C
Out there in that shiny night
F C
with blood hounds on your mind
G C
Don`t you know it`s the same sad situation
Am G F C
How long how long
G
Woman will you weep
Am G F C
How long how long
G F C Am
Rock yourself to sleep
C F C F C G G7 C
Everybody feels alright you know
F C
I heard some poor fool say (Somebody Ooooo)
G
Everyone is out there on the loose
C
Well I wish I lived in the land of fools
F C
Where no one knew my name
G C
But what you get is not quite what you choose
Am G F C
Tell me how long how long
G
Woman will you weep
Am G F C
How long how long
G F C
Rock yourself to sleep
Am G F C Am
How... long... how... long...
