Everly Brothers - Long Time Gone
Capo II
            D
You cheated me and made me lonely.
                        A7
I tried to be your very own.
              G                  D
There'll be a day you'll want me only
            A7                        D
But when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.
                G                    D
Be a long time gone, be a long time gone.
             A7                        D
Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.
                D
You're gonna be sad, you're gonna be weepin'.
                             A7
You're gonna be blue and all alone.
                  G               D
You'll regret the day you seen me leavin'
               A7                        D
'Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.
                G                    D
Be a long time gone, be a long time gone.
               A7                         D
'Cause, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.
              D
You'll see my face through tears and sorrow.
                                     A7
You'll miss the face you called your own.
               G       D
Baby, there'll be no tomorrow
               A7                        D
'Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.
                G                    D
Be a long time gone, be a long time gone.
             A7                        D
Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.
