[Verse]

D                           
Daddy sits on the front porch 
                             G  D 
swingin', lookin' out on a vacant 
  A
field
It used to be filled with burly 
                               D
tobacco, now he knows it never will
My brother found work in Indiana, my
                         G   D     
 sister's a nurse at the old folks 
A
home
Momma's still cookin' too much for 
supper and me, I've been a long time
 D
 gone


[Chorus]

       G    D    A          G   
Been a long time gone, no I 
         D           A
ain't hoed a row since I don't know 
when
A    D    G           A        
Long time gone and it ain't 
         D
comin' back again

[Verse]

D                                 
Delia plays that old church piano,
                    G  D    A
 sittin' out on her daddy's farm
She always thought that we'd be 
together, Lord, I never meant to do 
    D
her harm
Said she could heard me singin' in 
                      G   D   A
the choir, me I heard another song

I caught wind and hit the road 
runnin' and Lord, I've been a long 
     D
time gone


[Chorus]

       G    D    A             G
Been a long time gone, Lord, I 
           D              A
ain't had a prayer since I don't 
know when
A    D    G           A        
Long time gone and it ain't 
          D
comin' back again

[Bridge]

    C
Now me, I went to Nashville, tryin' 
to be the big deal
D
Playin' down on Broadway, gettin' 
there the hard way
C
Livin' from a tip jar, sleepin' in 
my car
D                                 
Hockin' my guitar, yeah I'm gonna 
     E     A
be a star


[Verse]

D                            
Now me and Delia singin' every 
Sunday, watchin' the children and 
      G  D   A
the garden grow
We listen to the radio to hear 
what's cookin' but the music ain't 
       D
got no soul
    D
Now they sound tired but they don't 
sound Haggard
                        G     D    
They got money but they don't have 
A
Cash,
         A
They got Junior but they don't have 
Hank

I think, I think, I think the rest 
is a...


[Chorus]

G    D    A          G          
Long time gone, no I ain't hit 
   D            A
the roof since I don't know when
A    D    G           A
Long time gone and it ain't comin' 
back...
         G    D    A          G 
I said a long time gone, no I 
             D            A
ain't honked a horn since I don't 
know when
A    D    G           A        
Long time gone and it ain't 
            D
comin' back again

| D    | D    | D    | G D A |
| A    | A    | A    | D     |

I said a long time, long time, long 
     A
time gone, oh it's been a long time
D                               A
Long time, long time, long time gone
                         D
Oh it's been a long time gone
Long time, long time, long time 
A               D
gone. Yeah, yeah.
