[Verse 1]
C          F        C                      G
After the band had played, you kissed my cheek

         C                         F
And you told me to meet you there later

   C           F        C        G
So I walked through the university

       C                             F
And auditioned your new friend, the painter

I walked for awhile

I found the house and I walked in the door

           C                          F
You were there, you were wearing his jacket

    C         F              C       F
He took his shirt off as he went to pour

       C                      F
Had a paper-back in his back pocket
[Interlude]

[Bridge]
   C                   Db
So I told you we're through

       Ab         Db
I made up some excuse

       Ab         Db
But I just wanted to

C               F
- Say it first
[Verse 3]
C            F          C          D
By then the bus wasn't running no more

      C                         F
So I sat on the couch with some no-one

C            F         C            F
I couldn't sleep so I laid on the floor

       C                          F
And I heard you two letting your hair down
[Interlude]
 Eb         F
Lettin' it down

 Eb         F
Lettin' it down

 A       C
Longest night

Longest night

Longest night

 C             F          C        D
Sometimes when I light a cigarette I

        C                          F
Think about the first time that I met you

 C           F           C            D
Outside the show in the dirt colored snow

    C                     F
You offered me one and I let you
