It�??ll Take A Long Time 
Sandy Denny 
Capo 3 
 
C        Bm              Am 
Oh it�??s like a storm at sea 
    C     Em      Am 
And everything is lost, 
G       F       C       Am                Em 
And the fretful sailors calling out their woes, 
   F      Am            Em 
As to the waves they�??re tossed. 
 
C       Bm           Am 
Oh they are all gentlemen 
 C        Em        Am 
And never will they know 
G        F    C      Am                Em 
If there is a reason each of them must go, 
   F        Am    Em 
To join the cruel flow. 
 
          D      G          Bm 
And it�??ll take a long, long time. 
      D      G          Bm 
It�??ll take a long, long time. 
       D     G          Bm 
It�??ll take a long, long time. 
         D           G          Bm 
Oh it�??ll take such a long, long time. 
 
C        Bm          Am 
There is no need for rules, 
 C         Em               Am 
There�??s no-one to score the game 
G   F        C       Am             Em 
And there is nobody living in this town 
F       Am        Em 
As even knows its name. 
 
         D           G          Bm 
Oh it�??ll take such a long, long time. 
      D      G          Bm 
It�??ll take a long, long time. 
      D      G          Bm 
It�??ll take a long, long time. 
  D     G    Bm 
A long, long time.
