[D]A long way, [G7]a long way

[D]It's a long way to be [G]happy
[D]I just don't know if I[G] can take it
[D]It's a long way to be [G]happy
F#m B7 Am?7I wonder if I'm gonna make it

[F#m7]Nothing I do seems like any [G]fun to me
[F#m7]You just don't know what losing him has [G]done to me
[Em]It's the middle of June but it [G]feels like December
[Em]So little to look forward to [G]and so much to [A]remember[A7]

It's a long time to smile againI just don't know if I can do itIt's a long time to smile againI wonder if I'm gonna get through it
I got to find a way to get a hold on myself againBefore I even try to give my love to someone else againThere are tears to be cried, I'm too close to rememberNo tears can be born until the old ones have given
