How Long

E E7 A A7 E B7 E

    E              E7
How long, baby how long,
         A                  A7
Has that evening train been gone?
    E             B7             
How long, how how long, baby how 
E
long?

            E                      
Went to the station, didn't see no 
E7
train.
           A                       
Down in my heart, I have an aching 
A7
pain.
    E             B7             
How long, how how long, baby how 
E
long?

          E                 E7
I feel disgusted, I feel so bad

                   A               
Thinking 'bout the good time that I
          A7
 once had had.
    E             B7             
How long, how how long, baby how 
E
long?

                E                  
I could see the green grass growing
        E7
 on the hill;
                A                 
I ain't seen no green on a dollar 
A7
bill.
    E             B7             
How long, how how long, baby how 
E
long?

                E                 
You're gonna be sorry you feel so 
E7
blue.
              A                    
When you want me, baby, I declare I
            A7
 want, want you.
    E             B7             
How long, how how long, baby how 
E
long?

(verse chords)

              E                    
Don't have no money for to ride the
 E7
 train.
                 A                 
I would ride the rails, baby, to be
           A7
 with you again.
    E             B7             
How long, how how long, baby how 
E
long?

    E              E7
How long, baby how long
       A                    A7
Must I keep my, my watch in pawn?
    E             B7             
How long, how how long, baby how 
E
long?
