[Verse 1]
Am G
This could be the longest night
Am G
In recorded history
Am G
And as for sleep, you might as well just cross it
Am G
Off the list of possibilities
C D
(Now) I'm as brave as the next man
C D
I won't turn and run from a fight
Am G Am
And I could last a million years
C D Am
If I just get through this night
G Am
Ohhh oh ohhh oh oh oh oh oh
[Verse 2]
Am G
I could be a novelist
Am G
Tell secrets never heard
Am G
Pour my soul into each and every sentence
Am G
But I just can't find the words
C D
Still I know that you're out there
C D
And you can relate to it all
Am G Am
And I could bear the cold and stormy winter
C D Am
If I just get through this fall
G Am
Ohhh oh ohhh oh oh oh oh oh
[Chorus]
F E
Don't you know there's no place on this Earth
Am
Where you can run to escape the pain of a broken heart
F E Am
It's useless to spend the time it takes you to try
F
But can't you see that I'm here
E
And I'm looking just the same
F
And I don't know why-y...
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Am G
I could be a movie star
Am G
The king of Hollywood
Am G
Make them cry, dramatically pretending
Am G
To keep romance alive
C D
And I would humbly thank my director
C D
And everyone involved from the start
Am G Am
I could blow them all away
C D Am
If I'd only find the part
[Coda]
G D G Am
Ohhh oh, if I just get through this night
G Dm G Am
Ohhh oh, if I just get through this... night...
