Intro: Bm (7th fret sounds good)
Verse 1------------------
Bm D
Another number for another year,
G D
Another blessing disguised by fear
Bm D G D
(Pull off on the e string or hammer on James Taylor style throughout)
How come everything good seems so hard to hear when I'm listening
Bm D
And now I'm trying to find myself
G D
And all I need is a little help
Bm D
But everybody else is busy helping themselves
G D
And I'm listening
G D
Oh listening
Chorus----------------
A A6 Bm
I get the feeling like I can't go on here
G D
How much longer? How much longer?
A A6 Bm
Oh, Believing that I don't belong here.
G D
How much longer?
G D
Tell me.
Verse 2------------------
Bm D
I walk so far that I can't get near
G D
So much talking the point disappears
Bm D
So it's only when listening it comes through clear.
G D
I've been listening
Bm D
I want so much that I aim too high
G D
I test the water and feel the fire
Bm D
So its no ones wonder my mouth gets dry
G D
I've been listening
G D
Oh listening
Chorus 2--------------
A A6 Bm
Still I get the feeling like I can't go on here
G D
How much longer? How much longer?
A A6 Bm
Oh, Believing that I don't belong here.
G D
How much longer?
G D
Tell me
Bridge----------------
Em F# Bm Bm11/A (Just remove the barring finger)
I was looking for a way to bow out gracefully
G Gm
But when I try to catch some understanding
C9 Bm
Everybody wants to race with me
Chrous 3------------
A A6 Bm
I get the feeling like I can't go on here
G D
How much longer? How much longer?
A A6 Bm
Oh, Believing that I don't belong here.
G D
How much longer?
G D
Tell me how much longer?
G Bm11 E7
How much longer?
