            Intro: C   G  C  F   G7         

C      G   C  F  G7   
Oh, oh oh oh  For the longest time.   oh  oh oh. For the longest...
C          F       C             D7        G 
If you said goodbye to me tonight.  There would still be music 
left to write.
E7         Am    G7      C    C7   
What else could I do? I'm so inspired by you. 
F        Dm          G     C   
That hasn't happened for the longest time. 
C      F         C           D7          G 
Once I thought my innocence was gone.    Now I know 
that happiness goes on.
E7          Am       G7           C   C7      
That's where you found me,  when you put your arms around me. 
F       Dm           G     C
I haven't been there for the longest time.
 
C  G  C  F  G7         C    G   C  F  G7           
Oh! oh oh oh For the longest time. Oh! oh oh. For the longest.. 
C        F         C           D7              G  
I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall.   And the greatest 
miracle of all,
E7       Am     G7         C    C7   
is how I need you.  And how you needed me too.
F       Dm          G     C   
That hasn't happened for the longest time. 
G           Am       B7        C        
Maybe this won't last very long, but you feel so right, 
and I could be wrong.
Em         Am         
Maybe I've been hoping too hard,
  D         D7       G       G7     
but I've gone this far and it's more than I hoped for
C      F           C      D7           G
Who knows how much further we'll go on. Maybe I'll be sorry 
when you're gone.
E7         Am     G7       C    C7     
I'll take my chances, I forgot how nice romance is. 
F       Dm           G     C   
I haven't been there for the longest time. 
G        Am          B7      C         
I had second thoughts at the start. I said to myself hold 
on to your heart.
Em         Am       
Now I know the woman that you are. 
    D        D7       G       G7     
You're wonderful so far and it's more than I hoped for.
C           F         C        D7          G   
I don't care what consequence it brings. I have been 
a fool for lesser things.
E7      Am       G7       C     C7     
I want you so bad, I think you ought to know that 
F       Dm          G     C   
I intend to hold you for the longest time. 
C  G  C  F  G7         C    ||: G  C  F  G7          C :||
Oh, oh, oh, oh. For the longest time.    Oh oh oh For the longest
time.
