As Long As It Takes

F                      C
I was watching when you lost 
direction
F                      C
And I saw you when the headlights 
died
F                       C
You were standing at the edge of a 
train wreck
G
Twisted up inside

F                           C
I tried to find you in your pitch 
black bedroom
F                          C
I tried to find you in the place you
 hide
F                   C
But your body was an empty suitcase
G
Hollow sunken eyes

Bridge:
      Am     E       C            
If you let me catch a ride on your 
G
road to recovery
Am             C      G
You can fall apart on me

Continues after the ad
Chorus :
       F        C
Because I'll be here as long as it 
takes
F           C
A remedy to steady your midnight 
shakes
F              C                G
I'll stay here as long as it takes
G                              F
As long as it takes to get it right

Verse 2:play like verse 1

Strange how no matter what the 
distance
You can never escape yourself
Distorted by your own reflection
But only I can tell.
I know I said I didn't watch your 
plane leave
Honestly, I should admit I lied
I was standing at the edge of the 
runway wishing I could fly

If you let me catch a ride on your 
road to recovery
You can fall apart on me

Because, I'll be here as long as it 
takes
A remedy to steady your midnight 
shakes
I'll stay here as long as it takes
As long as it takes to get it right.

F                  C
It's beautiful to break
C                            G
Let your false flag drift away
G
Show me your face

Am            C      G
You can fall apart on me

(play chorus)
Because I'll be here as long as it 
takes
A remedy to steady your midnight 
shakes
I'll stay here as long as it 
takes...

I'll be here as long as it takes
A memory that steadies your midnight
 shakes.
I'll stay here as long as it takes,
As long as it takes to get it right.
