I've sung this [G] song, but I'll sing it again, Of [C] a place that I lived [G] on the wild windy
[C] plains In a month [F] called April, a county called Gray,
[C] And here's what all of the people there sang.
So long, it's been good to [G] know you, So long, it's been good to know [C] you,
So [F] long, it's been good to know you, [C] This dusty old dust [G] is a-getting my
home, And I've got to be [C] drifting along.
But a storm [G] hit, and it hit like thunder, [C] Buried us in, [G] and it covered us under,
[C]
Blocked out the [F] traffic, and blocked out the sun,
[C] And straight for home all the people did run.
So long, it's been good to know you, [G] So long, it's been good to [C] know you,
So long, it's been good to know you, This dusty old dust [G] is a-getting my
home, And I've got to be drifting [C] along.
We'd talk to the [G] end of the world, and then [C] We'd sing a [G] song, and we'd sing it again,
[C] We'd sit for an hour [F] and say not a word, And then these [C] words would be heard.
So long, it's been good to know [G] you, So long, it's been good to know [C] you,
So long, it's been good to know you, This dusty old [G] dust is a-getting my
home, And I've got to be [C] drifting along.
Sweetheart sat [G] in the dark and [C] sparked, And they hugged and they [G] kissed in that
dusty old dark, [C] And they sighed and they [F] cried,
And they hugged and they [C] kissed, Instead of marriage they talked like this,
Honey, so long, it's been good to [G] know you, So long, it's been good to [C] know you,
So long, it's been good to know you, This dusty old dust [G] is a-getting
my home, And I've got to be [C] drifting along.
The telephone [G] rang, and it jumped off the wall, [C] That was the preacher, [G] he's making his [C] call,
He said, kind [F] friend, well, this may be the end, [C] And now's your last [G] chance for salvation from [C] sin.
The churches was jammed, and them churches was packed,
And [C] that dusty old dust [G] storm blowed so black, And the preacher could not read [C] a word of his text,
So he folded his fax, and he took up collection, Singing, so long, it's been good to know [G] you,
So long, it's been good to know you, [C] So long, [F] it's been good to know [C] you,
This dusty old dust [G] is a-getting my home, And I've got to be drifting [C] along.
