Eagles - How Long Chords

[intro]
C  F  C  F  C  G

[verse]
        C
Like a blue bird with his heart removed,
F
lonely as a train
      C   F      C        G      C
I've run just as far as I can run
      C                           F
If I never see the good old days shinin' in the sun
C              G                C
 I'll be doin' fine and then some

[chorus]
Am  G     F   C
How long, how long
                G
Woman will you weep
Am  G     F   C
How long, how long
G                    C
 Rock yourself to sleep

[verse]
             C
Well I been doin' time in lonesome prison,
F
 where the sun don't shine
C                                  G
Just outside, the freedom river runs
C
Out there in that shiny night,
F
with blood hounds on your mind
C                       G             C
Don't you know it's the same sad situation?

[chorus]
Am  G     F   C
How long, how long
                G
Woman will you weep
Am  G     F   C
How long, how long
G                    C
Rock yourself to sleep

C
 Everybody feels alright you know,
 F
I heard some poor fool say (Somebody Ooooo)
C                                G
 Everyone is out there on the loose
         C
Well I wish I lived in the land of fools,
F
no one knew my name
C                   G                   C
 But what you get is not quite what you choose
