How Long by Pacific Gold 




                           How Long 






The electric 
doesn't come in until the second
chorus.  The lick starting at "How long, how long in bondage..." 
is this:

e|---9-8-6--------|
B|--------9-6-9---|

Towards the end of the song tremolo
picking begins.  The lick tabbed 
above is then tremolo picked with 
reverb.  At the very end, delay is
used with the same lick.

The tab for the bridge is below.

Verse 1:

C#
To see the law by Christ fulfilled

To hear His pardoning voice 
             F# 
Can change a slave into a child
         C#
And duty into choice
   C#
No strength of nature can suffice

To serve the Lord aright
             F#
And what she has she misapplies
            C#
For want of clearer light

Chorus 1:

F#            C#
How long, how long 
  F#              C#
Beneath the law I lay
    F#        C#
How long, how long
  F#            C#
I struggled to obey

Verse 2:

     C#
Then to abstain from outward sin

Was more than I could do
         F#
Now if I feel its power within
         C#
I feel I hate it too
     C#
Then all my servile works were done

A righteousness to raise
            F#
Now, freely chosen in the Son
         C#
I freely choose His ways

Chorus 1:

    F#        C#
How long, how long 
  F#              C#
Beneath the law I lay
    F#        C#
How long, how long
  F#            C#
I struggled to obey

Interlude:

How long, how long

I struggled to obey

Chorus 2:

    F#        C#
How long, how long 
   F#            C#
In bondage and distress
    F#        C#
How long, how long
  F#               C#
I tried without success
