Dixie Chicks - Long Time Gone guitar chord

Long Time Gone

By The Dixie Chicks

D G D A

Daddy sits on the front porch swingin', lookin' out on a vacant field

D

It used to be filled with burly tobacco now he knows it never will

G D A

My brother found work in Indiana, my sister's a nurse at the old folks

home

D

Momma's still cookin' too much for supper and me, I've been a long time

gone

G D A G D A

Been a long time gone, no I ain't hoed a row since I don't know when

A D G A D

Long time gone and it ain't comin' back again

Delia plays that old church piano, sittin' out on her daddy's farm

She always thought that we'd be together, Lord, I never meant to do her

harm

Said she could heard me singin' in the choir, me I heard another song

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

gone

Been a long time gone, Lord, I ain't had a prayer since I don't know

when

A D G A D E A E B7 E

Long time gone and it ain't comin' back again

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 E A

Hockin' my guitar, yeah I'm gonna be a star

Now me and Delia singin' every Sunday, watchin' the children and the

garden grow

We listen to the radio to hear what's cookin' but the music ain't got no

soul

Now they sound tired but they don't sound Haggard

They got money but they don't have Cash,

They got Junior but they don't have Hank, I think, I think, I think the

rest is a...

G D A G D A

Long time gone, no I ain't hit 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 D A

I said a long time gone, no I ain't honked a horn since I don't know

when

A D G A D

Long time gone and it ain't comin' back again

A

I said a long time, long time, long time gone, oh it's been a long time

D A

Long time, long time, long time gone

D A

D

Oh it's been a long time gone... Long time, long time, long time gone.

Yeah, yeah
