[Intro] D D E E A A D E E E E A [Verse 1]
 E
Let me tell you 'bout a friend of mine

A                    D
He's a short order cook

          E     A         D
Long on speed, short on spice

             E
He reads his customers like a book

A          D                    E
He's seen this, and he's done that

           A                   D
Now he's makin' fried eggs an art

             E         A        D
But there's one thing he can't fix no how

            E              A
There's a longing in his heart
[Verse 2]
E
He's tried for years to work it out

         A                D
At the grill and at his home

                        E       A         D
Well he talks to his friends, talks to himself

              E
He talks the chicken right off the bone

  A                        D     E
Talks to his woman and she understands

                   A            D
You know they're always eye to eye

               E           A        D
She runs the joint, they live out back

        E
Small house under a big sky
[Chorus]
       A                 D     E
Well even the stars at night agree

 A                   D                
She sky is falling apart  

                  E       A       D
She knows cause she can feel it too

            E              A
There's a longing in her heart

 E                A
A longing in her heart

  E              A
Longing in her heart

E
Well now you and me, we're just like them

           A            D
We never wanted to be alone

              E            A      D
So we made a pact, sealed with desire

         E
For a happier house and home

 A                D       E
Only to find it doesn't untie

      A                  D
The knot where feelings die

                    E    A          D
There's a longing deep inside our hearts

 E
And no one to tell us why
[Verse 4]
 E
Our friends aren't looking for anything new

        A                    D
They wouldn't know where to look

           E             A      D 
Well her, she likes running the joint

 E
And he likes being a cook

  A                      D    E
Together they're doing very well

          A              D
They're might glad they could

                     E       A           D
But there's a fire burning towards them now

      E
Coming from a distant wood
[Chorus]
     A                  D     E
And even the stars at night agree

          A               D
That the sky is falling apart

           E            A      D
We know 'cause we can feel it too

 E                         A
There's a longing in our hearts

  E                 A     
A longing in our hearts

  E               A
Longing in our hearts
