I used to hur-ry a lot, 
5   6   7  -7  7 6  7
I used to wor-ry a lot 
5  -5   6  -6   -6  -6   -6   -5* -55 5
I used to stay out till the break of day 
-7    7   7   6   7  -7   
Oh, that did-n't get it, 
6   7   -7    7  6   7  -7
It was high time I quit it 
6   6    -6  -6  -6  -6 -5* -55 5-4
I just could-n't car-ry on that way 
6   6  6   -5   6  -3   5  6    7   7 6
Oh, I did some dam-age, I know it's true 
6    7   -7 -5* -5 4    4  -3
Did-n't know I was so lone-ly, 
5    6   7   7 6
till I found you 

6    7   7  6   7    -7
You can go the dis-tance 
-7      7  6 5 -3  4   -55  5
We'll find out in the long run 
-3   4  -5 5  5
(in the long run) 
6   7   -7  7    7   6  7   -7
We can han-dle some re-sis-tance 
-7  7   6 5 -3 4  -5 4   4   -3 4  -5 4   4
If our love is a strong one (is a strong one) 
5    5    6   7  6  7   -7
Peo-ple talk-in' a-bout us
6     7   -7   7   7    6  7 
they got noth-in' else to do 
6     7  -7   7    -7  6   7
When it all comes down we will 
-7      7    6
still come through
-3  4   -55  5
In the long run 


7   -6  -6  -6 -5*   5    5   5 -5 5  5
Ooh, I want to tell you, it's a long run 
4 -33-3 3-1*-1 1...

You know I don't understand why you don't 
treat yourself better 
do the crazy things that you do 
'Cause all the debutantes in Houston, baby, 
couldn't hold a candle to you 
Did you do it for love? 
Did you do it for money? 
Did you do it for spite? 
Did you think you had to, honey? 
Who is gonna make it? 
We'll find out in the long run 
(in the long run) 
I know we can take it 
if our love is a strong one 
(is a strong one) 
Well, we're scared, but we ain't shakin' 
Kinda bent, but we ain't breakin' 
in the long run 
Ooh, I want to tell you, it's a long run 
in the long run 
in the long run,
