How Long chords by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Chords with lyrics

You were on your own I was on the road
        A minorAm          C majorC
You were awful lonesome I was awful cold
      A minorAm             FF
You wanted love songs but that's not enough
    C majorC      G+G      FF
So how long must we punish each other
     C majorC    G+G     C majorC
For the sin of falling in love


C majorC
You were on the phone I was on the floor
         A minorAm           C majorC
And the boy was staring out the kitchen door
        A minorAm            FF
He hears our fighting and he takes it rough
     C majorC      G+G     FF
So how long must we punish each other
     C majorC    G+G     C majorC
For the sin of falling in love

C majorC             FF
Well there's a whole lot worse that a man can do
         C majorC
There's greater crimes for women too
         FF       G+G        C majorC
Than to give the holy power of love a place to stand
          FF
Now we’re looking back through a sack of wool
            C majorC
There's a boy with a stack of reasons to know
   FF                    G+G
Why we can’t forgive each other a Woman and Man


         C majorC
You were in the air I was in the sea
        A minorAm             C majorC
Boy was in a basket with friends on the beach
           A minorAm           FF
It don't take much asking to receive that stuff
     C majorC      G+G     FF
So how long must we punish each other
     C majorC    G+G     C majorC
For the sin of falling in love


      A minorAm            FF
Whoa how long must we punish each other
     C majorC    G+G     C majorC
For the sin of falling in love
