[Intro]
C F Am Em x2
C F Am G x1
C F Am Em x1
[Chorus]
C F Am Em
Loved you all a long, long while
C F Am Em
Looked down into a deep dark well
C F Am
Called all your names they echoed down
G
For miles and miles
C F Am Em
And all that other mytical, well, never you mind
[Verse 1]
C F Am Em
Loved them all through many a lifetime
C F Am Em
Some are gone but some still strong
C F Am Em
Some are weird as hell, but we love em
C F Am G
Some are one trick ponies, but we embrace em
C F Am Em
Cause Ive always had a soft spot for repetition
[Chorus]
C F Am Em
Loved you all a long, long while
C F Am Em
Looked down into a deep dark well
C F Am
Called all your names they echoed down
G
For miles and miles
C F Am Em
And all that other mytical, well, never you mind
[Verse 2]
C F Am Em
Loved you all a long, long time
C F Am Em
Looked long into the length of a tunnel
C F
Called all your names
Am G
And we was tripping out 'cause we needed a way out
C F Am Em
And all them other crystalline mystic rationalizations
[Verse 3]
C F Am Em
Loved them all right down to my soul
C F Am Em
Looked well into the depth of a hole
C F Am G
Pondered perpetual motion in the echo
C F Am Em
Just like the song if the repeats were long
[Chorus]
C F Am Em
Loved you all a long, long while
C F Am Em
Looked down into a deep dark well
C F Am
Called all your names they echoed down
G
For miles and miles
C F Am Em
And all that other mytical, well, never you mind
[Verse 4]
C F Am Em
Loved you all a long, long while
C F Am Em
And I'd give my left, nevermind, for one big synchronized smile
C F Am Em
Some are one trick ponies but so am I
C F Am G
Round 'em up into a mixed bag bundle of love now, yeah
[Verse 5]
C F Am Em
Loved them all a long, long tick
C F
And it's four, five, six
Am Em
Prevent your schtick
C F Am G
Throw them at the wall in a mixed bag and see if they stick
C F
Then give 'em a glass of water
Am Em
Give 'em a cherry pie
[Chorus]
C F Am Em
Loved you all a long, long while
C F Am Em
Looked down into a deep dark well
C F Am
Called all your names they echoed down
G
For miles and miles
C F Am Em
And all that other mytical, well, never you mind

?, shit
Yeah
Loved you all a long, long while
Looked down into a deep, dark well
Called all your names
They echoed down for miles and miles
And all that other mystical, well, never-you-mind
Loved them all through many a lifetime
Some are gone but some still strong
Some are weird as hell but we love 'em
Some are one trick ponies but we embrace 'em
'Cause I've always had a soft spot for repetition
Wooh, loved you all a long, long while
Looked down into a deep, dark well
Called all your names
They echoed down for miles and miles
And all that other mystical, well, never-you-mind
Loved you all a long, long time
Looked long into the length of a tunnel
Called all your names
And we was tripping out 'cause we needed a way out
And all them other crystalline mystic rationalizations
Loved them all right down to my soul
Looked well into the depth of a hole
Pondered perpetual motion in the echo
Just like the song if the repeats were long
Loved you all a long, long while
Looked down into a deep, dark well
Called all your names
They echoed down for miles and miles
And all that other mystical, well, never-you-mind
Loved you all a long, long while
And I'd give my left, nevermind, for one big synchronized smile
Some are one trick ponies but so am I
Round 'em up into a mixed bag bundle of love now, yeah
Loved them all a long, long tick
And it's four, five, six

Wooh, loved you all a long, long while
Looked down into a deep, dark well
Called all your names
They echoed down for miles and miles
And all that other mystical, well, never-you-mind
