[00:00.00]	Dixie Chicks - Long Time Gone
[00:20.25]	written by Darrell Scott & Tim O’Brien
[00:22.25]
[00:24.25]	Daddy sits on a' front porch swinging
[00:26.76]	Looking out on a vacant field
[00:29.60]	Used to be filled with burley tobacca
[00:32.23]	Now he knows it never will
[00:35.19]	My Brothers found work in Indiana
[00:37.93]	My Sisters a nurse at the old folks home
[00:40.88]	Mama still cooking too much for supper
[00:43.46]	And me I've been a long time gone
[00:46.19]	Been a long time gone
[00:48.99]	No, I ain't hoed a row since I don't know when
[00:52.21]	Long time gone
[00:54.57]	And it ain't coming back again
[00:58.06]
[01:08.03]	Deliah plays that old church piano
[01:10.49]	Sitting out on her daddy's farm
[01:13.36]	She always thought that we'd be together
[01:15.97]	Lord I never meant to do her harm
[01:19.03]	Said she could hear me singin' in the choir
[01:21.87]	Me, I heard another song
[01:24.67]	I caught wind and hit the road runnin'
[01:27.56]	And Lord, I've been a long time gone
[01:30.14]	Been a long time gone
[01:32.87]	Lord, I ain't had a prayer since I don't know when
[01:36.15]	Long time gone
[01:38.41]	And it ain't comin' back again
[01:44.54]
[02:03.74]	Now me, I went to Nashville,
[02:05.76]	Tryin' to beat the big deal
[02:07.14]	Playin' down on Broadway
[02:08.51]	Gettin' there the hard way
[02:09.92]	Living from a tip jar
[02:11.19]	Sleeping in my car
[02:12.73]	Hocking my guitar
[02:13.76]	Yeah I'm gonna be a star
[02:20.71]	Now, me and Deliah singing every Sunday
[02:24.05]	Watching the children and the garden grow
[02:26.68]	We listen to the radio to hear what's cookin’
[02:29.30]	But the music ain't got no soul
[02:32.37]	Now they sound tired but they don't sound Haggard
[02:35.11]	They've got money but they don't have Cash
[02:38.00]	They got Junior but they don't have Hank
[02:40.47]	I think, I think, I think
[02:42.77]	The rest is a long time gone
[02:46.01]	No, I ain't hit the roof since I don't know when
[02:49.28]	Long time gone
[02:51.58]	And it ain't coming back
[02:52.95]	I said a long time gone
[02:55.85]	No, I ain't honked the horn since I don't know when
[02:59.08]	Long time gone
[03:01.49]	And it ain't coming back again
[03:05.54]
[03:14.40]	I said a long time, long time, long time gone
[03:20.65]	Well it's been a long time
[03:23.38]
[03:25.89]	Long time, long time, long time gone
[03:31.75]	Oh, it's been a long time gone
[03:36.90]	Long time, long time, long time gone
[03:42.04]	Yeah yeah
