INTRO:    G     D     C  C-D-Am7-G  
Am7When you Gcalled me loCng distance from GMemphis
When they said it was Dm7you on the Emline
I said Gdon't come toCmorrow, 'cause EmI won't be A7here
You'd only be Am7wasting your Dtime
CHORUS:
I've been your Clong distance Dlover
                     G  Gadd9-G  
For far, far too long
But I'm Cnot here to Dtell you
Who's Am7right or who's Dwrong
E7sus4Well, I Cknow I once loved you
But Gsomehow it E7seemsE  
              Am         Am7         G     D     C  C-D-
That it's all a part of a dream
Am7So, don't Gcall me aCgain in Gthe morning
'Cause I won't be Dm7changing my Emmind
And the Gphone will be rCinging in Emmy empty A7room
I ain't leaving Am7nothing beDhind
CHORUS:
I've been your Clong distance Dlover
                     G  Gadd9-G  
For far, far too long
The Cnights are so Dlonely
Can't Am7keep holding Don
E7sus4And the Cmiles are like mountains
They Ghide you from E7meE  
And Amit's all a Am7part of a Gdream
INSTRUMENTAL:         G    D      Em    G    C    Em    A    Am    C  D  
CHORUS:
I've been your Clong distance Dlover
                     G  Gadd9-G  
For far, far too long
Can't Chold on to Dfeelings
When Am7you're so long Dgone
E7sus4It all Ckeeps on a-changing
And Gnow it just E7seemsE  
That Amit's all a Am7part of a Gdream
OUTRO:    (## repeat and fade to end ##)
          G     D     C  C-D-Am7-G
