Long Time

         C                     
She was a hot blooded woman, he 
  G
never saw it comin'
    Am                          
She hit him from the side that's 
 F
blind
      C                       G
She never gave a warning, he woke up
 in the morning
Am                        F
laying there next to his Bride
    C                           G
He got a little crazy when she had a
 little baby
          Am                       
cause it filled him with a fatherly
   F
 pride
        C                          
But a couple years later when their
  G
 love started fadin'
   Am                      F
he hurt so bad he nearly died

[Chorus]
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I was
  Am          F
 faithful
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I was
  Am          F
 grateful

It's been a long time, since I 
   Am              F
could look you in the eye
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I was
  Am          F
 grateful

[Verse 2]
She's a mother with a daughter, 
sittin' by the water
cause it's better for her baby to 
breathe
She got a man that's in prison cause
 he didn't wanna listen
Now he's sittin' waiting on a 
reprieve
And she loves her lil' baby but she 
get’s a lil' crazy
cause it's harder than she ever 
conceived
He left her on her own, but she's 
doin' it alone
cause she loves him like you 
wouldn't believe

[Chorus]
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I was
  Am          F
 faithful
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I was
  Am          F
 grateful
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I 
   Am              F
could look you in the eye
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I was
  Am          F
 grateful

[Verse 3]
He's a friend and a lover, husband 
and a brother
He's always been a prodigal son
He gets a lot of drama when he goes 
to see his mama
cause he curses like a son of a gun
He's beggin' to his lady, let him 
see his baby
He swears that she's the only one
He's got a heart full of sorrow, 
he's livin' for tomorrow
and he's sorry for the damage he's 
done

[Chorus] x2
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I was
  Am          F
 faithful
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I was
  Am          F
 grateful
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I 
   Am              F
could look you in the eye
           C         G            
It's been a long time, since I was
  Am          F
 grateful
