*John Mellencamp Longest Days Lyrics*
  C (x32010@1)                        GSeems (320003@1)like once upon a time ago
C (x32010@1)                           GI (320003@1)was where I was supposed to be
C (x32010@1)                       GMy (320003@1)vision was true and my heart was too
           C (x32010@1)                   DThere (xx0232@1)was no end to what I could dream
C (x32010@1)                                   GI (320003@1)walked like a hero into the setting sun
C (x32010@1)                    GEveryone (320003@1)called out my name
C (x32010@1)                    GDeath (320003@1)to me was just a mystery
C (x32010@1)                       DI (xx0232@1)was too busy raising up Cain

C (x32010@1)                GBut (320003@1)nothing lasts forever
C (x32010@1)                            GYour (320003@1)best efforts don't always pay
CSometimes (x32010@1)you get sick
              GAnd (320003@1)don't get better
CThat's (x32010@1)when life is short
D (xx0232@1)                 GEven (320003@1)in its longest days

C (x32010@1)                   GSo (320003@1)you pretend not to notice
C (x32010@1)                 GThat (320003@1)everything has changed
CThe (x32010@1)way that you look
         GAnd (320003@1)the friends you once had
C (x32010@1)                       DSo (xx0232@1)you keep on acting the same
C (x32010@1)                   GBut (320003@1)deep down in your soul
              C (x32010@1)        GYou (320003@1)know you, you got no flame
C (x32010@1)                      GAnd (320003@1)who knows then which way to go
C (x32010@1)                  D (xx0232@1)          GLife (320003@1)is short even in its longest days
CAll (x32010@1)I got here
DIs (xx0232@1)a rear view mirror
C (x32010@1)                       DReflections (xx0232@1)of where I've been
C (x32010@1)                                      GSo (320003@1)you tell yourself I'll be back up on top some day
C (x32010@1)                                                                                         DBut (xx0232@1)you know there's nothing waiting up there for you anyway

C (x32010@1)           GNothing (320003@1)lasts forever
C (x32010@1)                                GAnd (320003@1)your best efforts don't always pay
CSometimes (x32010@1)you get sick
               GAnd (320003@1)you don't get better
                      CThat's (x32010@1)when life is short
 D (xx0232@1)                GEven (320003@1)in its longest days
CLife (x32010@1)is short
D (xx0232@1)                 GEven (320003@1)in its longest days
