    Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds

One of my favourite Cave tracks even though it?s a cover. Had to listen to the original 
Rose version to pick it out and I think this is near as damn it correct.
I?d scoured everywhere for this to no avail so hope you enjoy as much as I do. Just 
with the A G D pretty much all the way with only a few variations.

NICK CAVE ? LONG TIME MAN
									Verse
Yeah, they came to take me away				A G A G
Said I'd be sitting here for the rest of my life			G D A Asus4
But I don't really care - I shot my wife				G D A Asus4
And brother, I can't even remember the reason why	G D A A

                                                                                   Chorus
Oh, it makes a long time man feel bad				G D A
Yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad			G D A
Well I ain't had no love since I don't know when		A G A G
It sure makes a long time man feel bad			A G D A Asus4


We was down in Jacksonville					Verse
A cold winter night
My baby and I, we began to fight
I heated up, and I grabbed my gun
I get so cold on those nights down south


She was laying in a pool right there on the kitchen floor	Verse
She looked up at me and began to smile
Her gasping words: "Baby, I love you"
Then she closed those baby blue eyes


(chorus, and variations)


Sometimes I hear you call my name in the dead of the night


I ain't had those arms around me
I ain't had those lips, those lips, around me


It sure makes a long time man feel bad
So bad
