[D] .
Daddy sits on the front porch swinging, looking out on a vacant [A] field.
Used to be filled with burly tobacco, now he [D] knows it never will.
Brother found work in Indiana, sisters and nurse at the [A] old folks' home.
Mom's still cooking too much for supper and me, I've been a [D] long time [G] gone.
Been [D] a long [A] time gone.
[G] No, [D] I ain't hold [A] a roll since I don't know when.
[D] [G] Long time gone.
And [A] it ain't [D] coming back again.
[G] [D] [A] .
[D] Hey, hey.
Delia plays that old church piano, sitting out on her [A] daddy's farm.
She always thought that with me together, Lord, I never meant to do her [Dm] harm.
[D] Said she could hear me singing in the choir, me, I heard [A] another song.
I caught wind and hit the [Am] road running, Lord, [B] I've been a [D] long time gone.
[G] Been a [D] long [A] time gone.
[G] Lord, I [D] ain't had a [A] purse since I don't know when.
[D] Long [G] time gone.
[A] And it ain't coming [D] back again.

[G] [C] Now me, I went to Nashville, trying to beat the [D] big deal.
Playing down on Broadway, [G] getting that heart [C] away.
Living from a tip jar, sleeping in [D] my car.
I'm rocking my guitar, yeah, I'm gonna [E] be a star.
[A] .
[D] Now me and Delia [A] singing every [D] Sunday, watching [G] the children [A] in the garden grow.
[F#] Listen to the radio to hear [A] what's cooking, [D] but the music ain't got no soul.
Now they sound tired, but they don't sound haggard.
They got money, but they [A] don't have cash.
They got a junior, but they don't have paint.
I think, I think, I [G] think.
The rest is a [D] long [A] time gone.
[G] No, [D] I ain't hit [A] the roof since I don't know when.
[D] Long [G] time gone.
[A] And it ain't coming [G] back, I said, [D] [A] long time [G] gone.
No, [D] I ain't [A] popped a porn since I don't know when.
[D] [G] Long time gone.
And [A] it ain't coming back [D] again.
[G] [A] .
[D] .
Said a long time, a long time, a [A] long time gone.
Oh, it's been a long time.
[F] [D] .
Long time, long time, long [A] time gone.
[D] Time gone.
Long time, long time, long [A] time gone.
