[Intro] D A F#m C# D A F#m C# D [Verse 1]
         A     F#m
Terrified, I am

      C#        D
Every single day

         A     F#m
Petrified, I am

               C#       G
And I'm not wood or clay

    D             A
How long, you ask?

           E             G
Heavy like rock and glass

         D             A
Are we expected to swim

             E
While we are drowning within?
[Chorus]
D     A       E
Don't ask how long

      C#
We're built for longing

D     A      E
Don't ask how long

      C#                A  E
We're built for longing
[Verse 2]
D     A         F#m
We can fantasize

             C#         D
About a good man and try

       A              F#m
Try to float, not sink

            C#
Through our lives

           G
And I think

             D         A
Everyone can sympathize

                E            G
We all want the sun and skies

         D         A
Maybe a baby or two

         E               D
A better life, I promise you
[Chorus]
      A       E
Don't ask how long

      C#               D
We're built for longing

      A       E
Don't ask how long

      B              D    A
Cause every answer's wrong

        E
You and me

                 D   A  E
Are made for wanting

                                D  A  E G
We're always gonna want for something
[Verse 3]
            D          A
Everyone can sympathize

            E                 G
We want the moon and the skies

                 D              A
Start again, our lives brand new

               E               D
The life I used to come home to

      A       E
Don't ask how long

      C#              D
We're built for longing

      A       E
Don't ask how long

      B              D   A
Cause every answer's wrong

        E
You and me

                   D A E
Are made for wanting

                                    D A E
We're always gonna want for something
