[Verse 1]
Dbm     D
I awoke late last night
    Dbm           D             A
And heard you cry softly by the window
Dbm               D                   E
Walked across the floor to ask what's wrong?
    D           D6    D          A    Dbm  Gbm  E
And as I put my arms around your shoulders
      D    Dbm  Bm7         Gbm      G    E
Right away    I knew it had been too long

[Verse 2]
         Dbm            D           A
Since we walked hand in hand by the river
Dbm            D                   E
Laid for hours watching the skies above
D            D6        D     A       Dbm     Gbm  E
Let our eyes hold each other cross a crowded room
D        Dbm        Bm7   Gbm     G
Too long since we'd taken time to love

[Chorus]
C                D             G        G7
Got to take some time for understanding
        C                D            G    G7
On that long and winding road back to love
            C             D            G      Bm  Em  D
Let's don't let our story have a sorry ending
C               D       G    E
Got to take the time to love

[Verse 3]
    Dbm           D               A
So, Baby come and lay back down beside me
Dbm             D                  E
Let me hold you close and keep you warm
D                D6      D           A       Dbm  Gbm  E
We don't need no special plans for tomorrow
D        Dbm     Bm7     Gbm   G
Together we will take it as it comes

[Chorus]
C                D             G        G7
Got to take some time for understanding
        C                D            G    G7
On that long and winding road back to love
            C             D            G      Bm  Em  D
Let's don't let our story have a sorry ending
C               D       G
Got to take the time to love
