[Cb]Oh, [Bbm]oh, [Cb]oh [Db]

[Bbm]Oh, [Cb]oh, [Db]oh
[Bbm]For the longest time
[Cb]If you [Bbm]said [Db]goodbye to me [Bbm]tonight
[Cb]There would [Bbm]still be [D]music left to [Bbm]write

[Cb]Once I [Bbm]thought my [Db]innocence was [Bbm]gone

[A7]When you put your [Cb]arms [D7]around me
[Db]I havent [D#]been there for the [Bbm]longest [Cb]time

Chorus
[Cb]Oh, [Bbm]oh, [Cb]oh [Db]
[Bbm]For the longest time[Cb]
[Bbm]Oh, [Cb]oh, [Db]oh
[Bbm]For the longest time
[Cb]If you [Bbm]said [Db]goodbye to me [Bbm]tonight
[Cb]There would [Bbm]still be [D]music left to [Bbm]write
[F]What else could [A#m]I do
[A7]I'm so [Cb]inspired [D7]by you
[Db]That hasn't [D#]happened for the [Bbm]longest [Cb]time

Verse
[Bbm]Maybe this wont [A#m]last very long
But [F#7]you feel so right
And [Cb]I could be wrong
[Bbm]Maybe Ive been [A#m]hoping too hard
[E7]But Ive gone this far
And its [Bbm]more than I hoped for

[Db]I havent [D#]been there for the [Bbm]longest [Cb]time

[Bbm]I had second [A#m]thoughts at the start
I [F#7]said to myself
Hold [Cb]on to your heart
[Bbm]Now I know the [A#m]woman that you are
Youre [E7]wonderful so far
And its [Bbm]more than I hoped for
[Cb]I dont [Bbm]care what [Db]consequence it [Bbm]brings
[Cb]I have [Bbm]been a [D]fool for lesser [Bbm]things
[F]I want you [A#m]so bad
[A7]I think you [Cb]ought to [D7]know that
[Db]I intend to [D#]hold you for the [Bbm]longest [Cb]time⠀⠀
