[G]It will take a long time to forg[D]et you my dear
A long long time I'll regret you're not h[G]ere
[A]A long time remembering when I had you so [C]near
It will t[D]ake a long time to for[G]get
There's a lot of people out a w[D]alkin' tonight
Thinkin' about arms that held 'em so t[G]ight
Memories keep a comin' in s[C]ight
Take a l[D]ong long time to fo[G]rget
It will take a long time to for[D]get you my dear...
A long long time I'll regret you're not h[G]ere
[A]A long time remembering when I had you so [C]near
It will t[D]ake a long time to for[G]get
I know a young fellow that l[D]ived down the street
He had a good woman everything was compl[G]ete
She was understandin' yes she was so s[C]weet
It took a l[D]ong long time to for[G]get
It takes a long long time to forget you my dear...
Now there's an old sayin' you're as [D]old as you feel
But time waits for no one and it never w[G]ill
I keep a wantin' and lovin' you [C]still
It takes a l[D]ong long time to for[G]get
A long long time I'll regret you're not h[G]ere
[A]A long time remembering when I had you so [C]near
It will t[D]ake a long time to for[G]get
There's a lot of people out a w[D]alkin' tonight
Thinkin' about arms that held 'em so t[G]ight
Memories keep a comin' in s[C]ight
Take a l[D]ong long time to fo[G]rget
It will take a long time to for[D]get you my dear...
A long long time I'll regret you're not h[G]ere
[A]A long time remembering when I had you so [C]near
It will t[D]ake a long time to for[G]get
I know a young fellow that l[D]ived down the street
He had a good woman everything was compl[G]ete
She was understandin' yes she was so s[C]weet
It took a l[D]ong long time to for[G]get
It takes a long long time to forget you my dear...
Now there's an old sayin' you're as [D]old as you feel
But time waits for no one and it never w[G]ill
I keep a wantin' and lovin' you [C]still
It takes a l[D]ong long time to for[G]get
