Strum
D-DU-UDU
All  the bedroom lights go out
 As the neighbourhood  gets quiet
 Ev'rything  in heaven and earth is almost right
 But there's a wife  who's wond'ring
 Where her husband  could be tonight
 And when the phone  rang almost once
 She took a dreadful  fright
 Little things  just seem to undermine
 Her confidence  in him
He  was late this time last  week
Who  can she turn to
 When the chance  of coincidence is slim
 `Cause the baby  isn't old enough to speak
 There's been a  long honeymoon
 She thought too  late and spoke  too soon
 There's no money-back  guarantee
 On future happiness
 There's been a  long honeymoon
 If he's out on a date  then her life's in ruins
 She never  thought her love
 Could ever be  as strong  as this
 All the movies  and the papers
 Feature the murders  of lonely women
 If he isn't  in by ten
 She'll call up her  best friend
Why  doesn't he come home
 Why does her friend's  phone keep on ringing
Maybe  she should just pretend
 There's been a  long honeymoon
 She thought too  late and spoke  too soon
 There's no money-back  guarantee
 On future happiness
 There's been a  long honeymoon
 If he's out on a date  then her life's in ruins
 She never  thought her love
 Could ever be  as strong  as this
Be  as strong as this
Be  as strong as this
Be  as strong  as this
Be  as strong  as this
 Original tune is c-minor!

Readable chord sheet for The Long by Suede

[Em]All the bedroom lights go out
As the neigh[D]bourhood gets quiet
Ev'[Am]rything in heaven and earth is almost r[Em]ight

But there's a w[Em]ife who's wond'ring
Where her hus[D]band could be tonight
And when the p[Am]hone rang almost once
She took a dr[Em]eadful fright

Little th[Em]ings just seem to undermine
Her conf[D]idence in him
[Am]He was late this time last[Em] week

[Em]Who can she turn to
When the ch[D]ance of coincidence is slim
`Cause the b[Am]aby isn't old enough to s[B]peak[B9]    [B]

There's been a[Abdim] long hon[G]eymoo[D]n
She thought too[Abdim] late and sp[G]oke too s[D]oon
There's no mo[C]ney-back guarantee
On future hap[Bm]piness
There's been a[Abdim] long hon[G]eymoo[F]n
If he's out on a [Fm]date then her life's in r[Eb]uins
She [Ebm]never thought her l[Bb]ove
Could [Ebm]ever [C#]be as s[Cm]trong as t[Bm]his

All the mo[Em]vies and the papers
Feature the mur[D]ders of lonely women
If he i[Am]sn't in by ten
She'll call up [Em]her best friend

[Em]Why doesn't he come home
Why does her fr[D]iend's phone keep on ringing
[Am]Maybe she should just pre[B]tend[B9]    [B]

There's been a[Abdim] long hon[G]eymoo[D]n
She thought too[Abdim] late and sp[G]oke too s[D]oon
There's no mo[C]ney-back guarantee
On future hap[Bm]piness
There's been a[Abdim] long hon[G]eymoo[F]n
If he's out on a [Fm]date then her life's in r[Eb]uins
She [Ebm]never thought her l[Bb]ove
Could [Ebm]ever [C#]be as s[Cm]trong as t[Bm]his

[G]Be as strong as t[D]his   [Am]       [Em]
[G]Be as strong as t[D]his   [Bbmaj7]           [Gadd9]                  [D]
[Bbmaj7]Be as s[Gadd9]trong as t[D]his
[Bbmaj7]Be as s[Gm7]trong as t[D]his     [Ab5]

Original tune is c-minor!
