For the verses just strum the chords and keep picking the bass line hammer-on's for the
and D strings but leave out the B string part that's in the intro. During the chorus let
high-e ring open for the F, G, and C chords.
[Intro]
I gotta [C] go,
And your talking in [Am7] code,
Saying I know where you've [C] been,
And I know where you [Am7] go.
But I've been [F] tir-[G]-ed from the [C] minute I woke,
I stopped [F]listen-[G]-ing the [C] moment you spoke,
And said [F] I'm [G] long [C] gone,
Yeah, [F] I'm [G] long [C] gone.
[Intro]
And I'm sleeping [C] alone,
In a house I don't [Am7] own,
Cause if you're touring your [C] mind,
You'll get lost [Am7] everytime...
And you'll sing me [F] sad [G] songs to [C] keep me awake,
In that [F] bed [G] room [C] we hid away,
Baby, [F] I'm [G] long [C] gone,
Yeah, [F] I'm [G] long [C] gone...
[Intro]
And your [F] voice [G] cracks [C] like a piano,
You keep [F]mov-[G]-ing, [C]but where are you going,
Baby, [F] we're [G] long [C] gone,
Yeah, [F] we're [G] long [C] gone...
Enjoy!
