Tomorrow Is A Long Time chords
Bob Dylan 1971 **
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomorrow_Is_a_Long_Time
If toGday was not an Cendless Ghighway
If tonight was not a Ccrooked Gtrail
If tomoCrrow Dwasn't such a Glong time
Then Clonesome would mean Dnothing to you at Gall
Yes, and Conly if my Down true love was Gwaiting
Yes, and Cif I could hear her Dheart a softly Gpounding
COnly if Dshe was lying Gby me
Then I'd Clie in my Dbed once aGgain.
I Gcan't see my reflection Cin the Gwater
I can't speak the sounds that Cshow no Gpain
I can't Chear the Decho of my Gfootsteps
Or Ccan't remember the Dsound of my own Gname
Yes, and Conly if my Down true love was Gwaiting
Yes, and Cif I could hear her Dheart a softly Gpounding
COnly if Dshe was lying Gby me
Then I'd Clie in my Dbed once aGgain.
There's Gbeauty in the silver, Csinging Griver
There's beauty in the sunrise Cin the sGky
But Cnone of these and Dnothing else can touch the Gbeauty
That I reCmember in my Dtrue love's Geyes.
Yes, and Conly if my Down true love was Gwaiting
Yes, and Cif I could hear her Dheart a softly Gpounding
COnly if Dshe was lying Gby me

Then I'd lie in my bed once again.
