Song: |
4 -4 -4 -4 -5 -6-6-6
My parents raised me tenderly,
-5 6 6 4 4 -4~~~~~~~~
I was their only son;
-6 -6 6 -6 7 -8 -8
My mind got mixed with wanderin
-6 7 7 -6 6 -6~~~~~~~�
when I was much too young.
-6 -6 -6 6 -6 7 -8 -8
And I left my home the first time;
7 -8 7 -6 6 6 -6 6 5 -4
When I was twelve and one~~~~~~
-6 6 -6 6 -5 6 -5 -4
Been a long time a comin�, Ma,
-4 -4 -5 4 4 -4 -4
An` I'll be a long time gone.
On a road through south New Mexico, in the dust and rolling sage,
I thought I�d try to find some work, but they said I was young of age.
No place to turn, I'd somehow learn to make it on my own.
Been a long time comin� and I'll be a long time gone.
Many times by the highway side I tried to flag a ride.
With bloodshot eyes and gritting teeth, I�d watch the cars roll by.
In the empty air, my only guide, I traveled on alone,
Been a long time comin� and I�ll be a long time gone.
You might see me on your crossroads, when I�ll be passing through,
And dream you�ll one day follow as I drift beyond your view,
Destined for a journey that will never lead me home�
Been a long time comin� and I�ll be a long time gone.
If I could help one drifter on this long, relentless road,
I�d warn him of its random ways and the dangers it might hold,
But I know I ain't no prophet and I ain't no prophet's son�
Just a long time comin� and I'll be a long time gone.
So you can have your beauty when skin-deep, it only lies,
And you can have your youthhood, it will fade before your eyes.
When my roving days are through, just carve upon my stone:
�Been a long time comin� and I'll be a long time gone.�
