It Takes A Long Time chords by John Nolan
Guitar chords with lyrics
Played with capo on the 3rd fret
Intro:Em G C Am7 2x
Em G C
They dragged me from the party kicking and screaming
Am7 Em
Clawing at the carpet and chewing up the scenery
G C Am7 Em G C Am7
Talking to my friends with no regard for decency
Em G C Am7
I couldn't tell you what I did, or what it meant to me
Em
But I keep finding all these pieces
G C Am7
Soon they start to form a picture
Em G C
And I can understand what I've done
Am7 Em G C
But it takes a long time
Am7 Em G C Am7
to understand why
🎸

Am7 Em
You made it home, but I was left on the road
G C Am7
To sing songs, drink hard to fight fatigue and the cold
Em
Sleep walking through the days
G C Am7 Em G C Am7
Just waiting until the clock says it's time to let go
Em G
Until it's time to give up again and pretend
C Am7 Em
I'm not bound by habit, I'm not a slave to my needs
G C Am7
I choose to let go so I must be in control
Em G C
This must be who I want to be
Am7 Em G C
But it takes a long time
Am7 Em G C
to understand why
Am7 Em G C
It takes a long time
Am7 Bm C Cmaj7

It takes a long time

It takes a long time
