Chords/Tabulature for
I've Loved Her So Long

Submitted by: Malc Brookes (malc@malbro.demon.co.uk)

Notes about this song:

  • Tuning: Standard EADGBE, with capo on 1st fret.
  • This song was originally arranged with lots of strings, therefore you will always lose a lot of the complex harmonies when you try to arrange it for guitar.
  • Note from Wolfgang: I don't quite agree with some of Malc's D chords, such as over "(doing it) wrong", at the end of the lines of the chorus, and over "we could go" / "that she needs". I think something like (x0220) or Dmaj7 fits better.

   Veteran of a race that should be over,

        Bm       A6          A        D/F#
Can you hear her sigh?  With wings to fly,

    E      A    Amaj7    D/F#
She rolls along doing it wrong.


A         E              D
Oh, I've loved her so long,

A         E              D
Oh I've loved her so long.


D           Dmaj9        D6             D        G
  There's a place that I know, we could go, get away for a while.

D       Dmaj9         D6             D               G
  I can bring her the peace that she needs, give her reason to smile.

A         E              D
Oh, I've loved her so long...
