Cheryl Wheeler - But The Days And Nights Are Long


CAPO: 3rd Fret


INTRO: G+G  C majorC  Dsus2Dsus2

       G+G
Well, life is short
              C majorC   ~ Dsus2Dsus2
But the days and nights are long
       G+G
And time will heal all these wounds some day soon
            C majorC     E minorEm Dsus2Dsus2
I'll be rising, I'll be strong

      C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9 D MajorD    E minorEm
But now I'm losing all my battles
    C majorC    Cadd9Cadd9  Dsus2Dsus2
Now I'm down and dropping still
     G+G
And this snow's blowing through like some ghost
             C majorC  E minorEm Cadd9Cadd9 Dsus2Dsus2
With this blue I know too well


    G+G
Broken hearts
             C majorC  ~ Dsus2Dsus2
Keep on beating just the same
   G+G
So I guess I can too, go through these moves
              C majorC    E minorEm Dsus2Dsus2
Facing forward, walking straight


      C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9  D MajorD     E minorEm
But now my glance keeps drifting downward
    C majorC     Cadd9Cadd9   Dsus2Dsus2
Now my feet can't find their way
     G+G
And this cold's creeping in through my bones
             C majorC  E minorEm Dsus2Dsus2 G+G
Whispering, it's here to stay


INSTRUMENTAL: G+G  C majorC  D MajorD G+G   C majorC  D MajorD

       G+G
I'll bide my time
            C majorC  ~ Dsus2Dsus2
Like there's any other way
       G+G
It moves too slow, moves too fast, it's gone and past
            C majorC   E minorEm Dsus2Dsus2
And stopped entirely today


        C majorC    Cadd9Cadd9  Dsus2Dsus2  E minorEm
I know there's light on some horizon
      C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9 Dsus2Dsus2
But I can't see so far ahead
       G+G
Patience and grace, blessed is love, I'm loosing my faith
                   C majorC  E minorEm
In most of that stuff those wise men said
       G+G      D MajorD    C majorC  E minorEm Dsus2Dsus2
Most of that stuff those wise men said


OUTRO:
    G+G
Life is short
              C majorC
