Artist: The Jeff Healey Band


This is just the basic chords for this song.


Intro:      

                       
I've been a restless,

  for a long, long time

  Tryin' to find a home
                  
for this heart of mine
                       
The nights are lonely,
                         
  and the days are long

  It’s hard to find a reason,
            
to carry on
                    
  But all this searchin',
                     
is it ever gonna end?
                
  Must I keep on losin',
          
again and again?

                             
Tell me, how long can a man be strong?
                     
How long must he carry on,
                     
without the love of a woman,
          
to call his own?
                            
Tell me, how long can a man be strong ?

                          
It’s on every man’s mind,
                           
  to find that special girl

  Some of them getta lucky
                      
But I'm alone in this world
                        
Still I know she’s out there somewhere
                         
so I’m gonna keep on tryin’

  Someday I’m gonna find her,
                           
it’s just a matter of time
          
  As long as I’ve been waiting,
       
I know she’s been waiting, too
                 
  Hold on a little longer baby,
                   
I’m on my way to you

                             
Tell me, how long can a man be strong?
                     
How long must he carry on,
                     
without the love of a woman,
          
to call his own?
                            
Tell me, how long can a man be strong ?

Won't Ya tell me,
                   
How long can a man be strong? 

                          
  Now ever since this world began,
                      
  it takes a woman to make a man
             
And I need someone!
                          
Don’t you know I need someone? Yeah!

Solo:          


  Ooh but all this searchin’,
      
is it ever gonna end?
                
  Must I keep on losin’,
                    
again and again and again?

                             
Tell me, how long can a man be strong?
                     
How long must he carry on,
                     
without the love of a woman,
          
to call his own?
                            
Tell me, how long can a man be strong ? Yeah!
