[C]When life leaves you high and [G]dry
I’ll be at your door to[Am]night
If you need help, if you [F]need help
I’ll shut down the ci[C]ty lights
I’ll lie, cheat, I’ll beg and [G]bribe
To make you well, to make you [Am]well
When enemies are at your [F]door
I’ll carry you away from [C]war
If you need help, if you [G]need help
Your hope dangling by a [Am]string
I’ll share in your suffering
To make you well, to make you [F]well
[C]Give me reasons to be[G]lieve
That you would do the same for [Am]me
[Chorus]
And I will do it for you, for [F]you
Baby, I’m not moving [C]on
I’ll love you long after you’re [G]gone
For you, for [Am]you
You will never sleep a[F]lone
I’ll love you long after you’re [C]gone
And long after you’re gone, gone, [G]gone
Gone, gone, [Am]gone
[C]When you fall like a statue
I’m gon’ be there to [G]catch you
Put you on your feet, you on your [Am]feet
And if your well is [F]empty
Not a thing will prevent [C]me
Tell me what you need, what do you [G]need
[C]I surrender hon[G]estly
You’ve always done the same for [Am]me
[Chorus]
So I will do it for you, for [F]you
Baby, I’m not moving [C]on
I’ll love you long after you’re [G]gone
For you, for [Am]you
You will never sleep a[F]lone
I’ll love you long after you’re [C]gone
And long after you’re gone, gone, [G]gone
Gone, gone, [Am]gone
[Bridge]
You’re my back[F]bone
You’re my corner[C]stone
You’re my crutch when my legs stop [G]moving
You’re my head [Am]start
You’re my rugged [F]heart
You’re the pulse that I’ve always [C]needed
Like a drum, baby, don’t stop [G]beating
Like a drum, baby, don’t stop [Am]beating
Like a drum, baby, don’t stop [F]beating
[Chorus]
And I will do it for you, for [C]you
Baby, I’m not moving [G]on
I’ll love you long after you’re [Am]gone
For you, for [F]you
You will never sleep a[C]lone
I’ll love you long after you’re [G]gone
And long after you’re gone, gone, [Am]gone
[Outro]
Gone, gone, [F]gone
I’ll love you long after you’re [C]gone
Gone, gone, [G]gone
I’ll love you long after you’re [Am]gone
Gone, gone, [F]gone
I’ll love you long after you’re [C]gone
