              C
1. I used to hurry a lot, I used to worry a lot,
                F
    I used to stay out till the break of day.
     C
    Oh, that didn't get it, it was high time I quit it,
            F
    I just couldn't carry on that way .
     a
    Oh, I did some damage, I know it's true,
             F
    didn't know I was so lonely , till I found you.

     C
    You can go the distance, 
                           F
    we'll find out in the long run (in the long run).
            C
    We can handle some resistance,
                        F
    if our love is a strong one (is a strong one).

            a
    People talkin' about us, they got nothin' else to do,
             F
    when it all comes down, we will still come through,
            C         F                               C       - G
    in the long run, ooh, I want to tell you, it's a long run.

               C
2. You know I don't understand why you don't treat yourself better,
     F
    do the crazy things that you do,
                    C
    'cause all the     debutantes in Houston, baby, 
      F
     couldn't hold a candle to you.
