verse 1
 E
Let me tell you 'bout a friend of mine
A          D
He's a short order cook
     E   A     D
Long on speed, short on spice
       E
He reads his customers like a book
A     D          E
He's seen this, and he's done that
      A          D
Now he's makin' fried eggs an art
       E     A    D
But there's one thing he can't fix no how
      E       A
There's a longing in his heart

verse 2
E
He's tried for years to work it out
     A        D
At the grill and at his home
            E    A     D
Well he talks to his friends, talks to himself
       E
He talks the chicken right off the bone
 A            D   E
Talks to his woman and she understands
          A      D
You know they're always eye to eye
        E      A    D
She runs the joint, they live out back
    E
Small house under a big sky

    A         D   E
Well even the stars at night agree
 A          D
She sky is falling apart
         E    A    D
She knows cause she can feel it too
      E       A
There's a longing in her heart
 E        A
A longing in her heart
 E       A
Longing in her heart

verse 3
E
Well now you and me, we're just like them
      A      D
We never wanted to be alone
       E      A   D
So we made a pact, sealed with desire
     E
For a happier house and home
 A        D    E
Only to find it doesn't untie
   A         D
The knot where feelings die
          E  A     D
There's a longing deep inside our hearts
 E
And no one to tell us why

verse 4
 E
Our friends aren't looking for anything new
    A          D
They wouldn't know where to look
      E       A   D
Well her, she likes running the joint
 E
And he likes being a cook
 A           D  E
Together they're doing very well
     A       D
They're might glad they could
           E    A      D
But there's a fire burning towards them now
   E
Coming from a distant wood

   A         D   E
And even the stars at night agree
     A        D
That the sky is falling apart
      E      A   D
We know 'cause we can feel it too
 E             A
There's a longing in our hearts
 E         A
A longing in our hearts
 E        A
Longing in our hearts
