[Verse 1]
G
I’ve been long gone
C D G
From the stage to the highway to the night grille
C D G
And everywhere I went, time just stood still
C D G Bm C D
And in every town it all went down the same
[Verse 2]
G
I’ve been long gone
C D G
And in every dream was the dream that you’d still want me
C D G
In every motel room your brown eyes would just haunt me
C D G Bm C D
And in every town I called out your name
[Verse 3]
G
I’ve been long gone
C D G
Set loose again to chase another payday
C D G
Knowing if I could just hold you, I’d be okay
C D G Bm C D
Tell me once again that you’re still mine
[Chorus]
C
There was nothing on the highway
Bm
There was nothing but the wind
C
And I couldn’t look ahead
Bm
I could just see where I’ve been
Am
From Hartford down to Tampa, Duluth to Malibu
C D
I ran every trick, I told any lie just to get on home to you
[Verse 4]
G
I’ve been long gone
C D G
Now I’m standing in the doorway of your front hall
C D G
Ain’t this better than a letter or a phone call
C D G Bm C D
Tell me once again that you’re still mine
[Verse 5]
G
I’ve been long gone
C D G
Unpack my bags and throw away the suitcase
C D G
Let me know it’s true, let me just touch your face
C D G Bm C D
Tell me you still love me one more time
[Verse 6]
G
I’ve been long gone
C D G
And true love always comes as a surprise
C D G
Can you see your reflection in my eyes
C D G Bm C D
Tell me you still love me one more time
[Chorus]
C
There was nothing on the highway
Bm
There was nothing but the wind
C
And I couldn’t look ahead
Bm
I could just see where I’ve been
Am
From Hartford down to Tampa, Duluth to Malibu
C D
I ran every trick, I told any lie just to get on home to you
[Verse 6]
G
I’ve been long gone
C D G
And those nights alone were almost too much to bear
C D G
Throw your arms around me and just keep them there
C D G Bm
Tell me you still love me one more time
C D
Oh, one more time
