[Verse]
C
Did you ever hear the story about 
Long John Dean?
  G                              C
An bold bank robber, from Bowling 
Green;
     C
They put him in the jail house the 
other day,
    G                          
And late that night he made his 
  C
getaway.

[Chorus]
     C
He's long gone, from Old Kentucky,
F                    C
 Long gone, got away lucky;
     C
He's long gone, that's what I mean,
     G                      C
He's long gone, from Bowling Green.

[Verse]
   C
They offered up-a reward to bring 
him back

     G                           
They even put the blood hounds on 
    C
his track
    C
But the doggone blood hounds lost 
his scent
    G                           C
And nobody knows where Long John 
went

[Chorus]
     C
He's long gone, from Old Kentucky,
F                    C
 Long gone, got away lucky;
     C
He's long gone, that's what I mean,
     G                      C
He's long gone, from Bowling Green.

[Break - same as chorus]

[Verse]
     C
Well I'll never forget till the day 
I die
  G                             
I played the game of love with a 
              C
woman held high
         C
It was a heads you win, and tails I 
lose
    G                              
Well she played the ace, and I had 
        C
the deuce


[Chorus]
       C
But I's long gone, from Old 
Kentucky,
F                    C
 Long gone, got away lucky;
     C
I's long gone, that's what I mean,
     G                      C
Long gone, from Bowling Green.
     C                         C
I's long gone, from Old Kentucky,
G                    C
 Long gone, got away lucky;
     C                       Am
I's long gone, that's what I mean,
     G                      C
Long gone, from Bowling Green.
