John Mellencamp - Longest days

^DbSeems like once upon a time ^Gbago ^DbI was where I was supposed to b^Gbe ^DbMy vision was true and my h^Gbeart was too There was no ^Bbmend to what I could ^Abdream ^DbI walked like a hero into the setting s^Gbun ^DbEveryone called out my n^Gbame ^DbDeath to me was just a m^Gbystery I was too ^Bbmbusy raising up ^AbCain

^DbBut nothing lasts fo^Gbrever ^DbYour best efforts don't always p^Gbay ^DbSometimes you get sick and don't get ^Gbbetter ^BbmThat's when life is short ^Gbeven in its ^Ablongest ^Dbdays

^DbSo you pretend not to n^Gbotice ^DbThat everything has c^Gbhanged ^DbThe way that you look and the ^Gbfriends you had So you ^Bbmkeep on acting the ^Absame

^DbBut deep down in your s^Gboul ^DbYou know you, you got no ^Gbflame ^DbAnd who knows then which w^Gbay to go ^BbmThat's when life is short ^Gbeven in its ^Ablongest ^Dbdays

^BbmAll I got here is a ^Abrear view mirror ^BbmReflections of where I've ^Abbeen So you ^Bbmtell yourself I'll be back up on top some^Ab day But you ^Gbknow there's nothing waiting up there for you any^Abway

^DbBut nothing lasts fo^Gbrever ^DbYour best efforts don't always p^Gbay ^DbSometimes you get sick and don't get ^Gbbetter ^BbmThat's when life is short ^Gbeven in its ^Ablongest ^Dbdays ^BbmThat's when life is short ^Gbeven in its ^Ablongest ^Dbdays
