You cheated me and made me lonely.
B
I tried to be your very own.
A E
There'll be a day you'll want me only
B [tacit--------------] E
But when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.
A E
Be a long time gone, be a long time gone.
B [tacit--------------] E
Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.

You're gonna be sad, you're gonna be weepin'.
You're gonna be blue and all alone.
You'll regret the day you seen me leavin'
'Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.
Be a long time gone, be a long time gone.
'Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.

You'll see my face through tears and sorrow.
You'll miss the face you called your own.
Baby, there'll be no tomorrow
'Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.
Be a long time gone, be a long time gone.
Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone.
