The Longest Day Of The Year

I couldn't sleep last [Em9]night   [C]
I laid a[G]wake and wished you were [B7]her[B7]e  [A]      [Em9]
I wished that I had more [C]time to make more mis[G]takes
I'd make them [B7]louder and [B7]cle[A]arer

[C]I couldn't [B7]sle[Eb]ep last [G]night
[C]It wasn't for my [B7]lac[Eb]k of [G]try[A7/C#]ing
[C]I just couldn't [B7]sle[Eb]ep last [G]nig[A7/C#]ht___  [C]     [A7/C#]

Not a [D]light was [C]on
While I [Bm7]held [Bbm7]this [Am7]song in [G]mind of [A7/C#]you
And [C]what you do, what you [B7]do [Eb]to [G]me

[Emin9]I even followed the [C]rules
I closed my [G]eyes I didn't [B7]mov[B7]e  [A]      [Emin9]
If I was only stronger[C] I wish that I was stronger here
[G]Referring to my heartsong dear
Cause [B7]this day will be the [B7]lon[A]gest of the year

[C]I couldn't [B7]sle[Eb]ep last [G]night
[C]I just couldn't [B7]get[Eb] it [G]rig[A7/C#]ht
[C]I just couldn't [B7]sle[Eb]ep last [G]nig[A7/C#]ht___  [C]     [A7/C#]

By the [D]light of [C]day may my [Bm7]dreams be [Am7]waiting

In [Cmaj7]time
In [Bm7]due time  [Bm7]        [Bbm7]               [Am7]
I will rest my [B7]tho[Eb]ughts of [F#maj7]you

[Emin9]Could I be more lucky than I've grown to be just knowing that I [C]know her
Why shouldn't I [G]show her all the [B7]wise of getting [B7]old[A]er
[Emin9]Could she be more perfect in perfection her reflection is [C]casting
Well that's the [G]last thing I'm [B7]ever [B7]ask[A]ing

[C]I couldn't [B7]sle[Eb]ep last [G]night
[C]I just couldn't [B7]get[Eb] it [G]rig[A7/C#]ht
[C]I just couldn't [B7]sle[Eb]ep last [G]nig[A7/C#]ht___  [C]     [A7/C#]
