THE LONG RUN (THE EAGLES)

INTRO:  C –– F –– (2x)

                   C 
I used to hurry a lot

I used to worry a lot
                    F
I used to stay out till the break of day
C
Oh, that didn't get it

It was high time I quit it
             F
I just couldn't carry on that way

Am
Oh, I did some damage, I know it's true
                F
Didn't know I was so lonely

Till I found you

  C
You can go the distance
                                       F
We'll find out in the long run

(In the long run)
                C
We can handle some resistance
                               F
If our love is a strong one

(Is a strong one)

             Am
People talking about is

They got nothin' else to do
                F
When it all comes down

We will still come through
             C
In the long run
 F
Ooh, I want to tell you
           C            G, G ~
It's a long run

                        C
You know I don't understand

Why you don't treat yourself better
 F
Do the crazy things that you do
                      C
Cause all the debutantes in Houston, baby,
   F
Couldn't hold a candle to you

              Am
Did you do it for love?

Did you do it for money?
                F
Did you do it for spite?

Did you think you had to, honey?

   C
Who is going to make it?
                                       F
We'll find out in the long run

(In the long run)
C
I know we can take it
                               F
If our love is a strong one
