Cheryl Wheeler - But the days and nights are long

Well, life is ^Gshort But the days and nights are ^Clong

~

^Dsus2 And time will ^Gheal all these wounds some day soon I'll be rising, I'll be ^Cstrong ^{Em Dsus2}

But now I'm ^Closing ^Cadd9all my ^Dbattles ^Em Now I'm ^Cdown and ^Cadd9dropping ^Dsus2still And this ^Gsnow's blowing through like some ghost With this blue I know too ^Cwell ^{Em Cadd9 Dsus2}

Broken ^Ghearts Keep on beating just the ^Csame

~

^Dsus2 So I ^Gguess I can too, go through these moves Facing forward, walking str^Caight ^{Em Dsus2}

But now my ^Cglance keeps ^Cadd9drifting ^Ddownward ^Em Now my ^Cfeet can't ^Cadd9find their ^Dsus2way And this ^Gcold's creeping in through my bones Whispering, it's here to ^Cstay ^{Em Dsus2 G}

I'll bide my ^Gtime Like there's any other ^Cway

~

^Dsus2 It moves too ^Gslow, moves too fast, it's gone and past And stopped entirely to^Cday ^{Em Dsus2}

I know there's ^Clight on ^Cadd9some hor^Dsus2izon ^Em But I can't ^Csee so ^Cadd9far a^Dsus2head Patience and ^Ggrace, blessed is love, I'm loosing my faith In most of that stuff those wise men ^Csaid ^Em Most of that ^Gstuff those ^Dwise men ^Csaid ^{Em Dsus2}

Life is ^Gshort But the days and nights are ^Clong
