Ballagh Choir of Ages - Singalong Video 26th August 2021 - Long Time Gone

Got to do a little bit of outdoor filming today! This week's video will possibly be the least well-known among the Choir of Ages of all the songs I've done so far. It's called Long Time Gone by Darrell Scott (and probably best known for the Dixie Chicks version), and it's a really challenging guitar song, so I'm treating it as a bit of show-offery! Lyrics: Verse 1: Daddy sits on the front porch swingin' Looking out on a vacant field Used to be filled with burley tobacco Now he knows it never will My brother's found work in Indiana Sister's a nurse at the old folks' home Mama's still cooking too much for supper And me, I been a long time gone Chorus: Been a long time gone I ain't hoed a row since I don't know when Long time gone And it ain't comin' back again Verse 2: Delia plays that old church piano Sittin' out on her daddy's farm She always thought that we'd be together Lord, I never meant to do her harm Said she could hear me singin in the choir Me I heard another song I caught wind and hit the road runnin' And Lord I been a long time gone Chorus: Been a long time gone I ain't had a prayer since I don't know when Long time gone And it ain't comin' back again Bridge: Now me, I went to Nashville Trying to be the big deal Playing down on Broadway Getting there the hard way Living from a tip jar Sleeping in my car Hocking my guitar Yeah I'm gonna be a star Verse 3: Now me and Deliah Singing every Sunday Watching the garden and the children grow We listen to the radio to hear what's cooking But the music ain't got no soul Now they sound tired but they don't sound Haggard They got money but they don't have Cash They got Junior but they don't have Hank I think, I think, I think, the rest is Chorus: A long time gone No I ain't honked the horn since I don't know when Long time gone And it ain't coming back I said a long time gone No I ain't honked a horn since I don't know when Long time gone And it ain't coming back again Solo: guitar solo Outro: I said a long time, long time, long time gone And it ain’t comin’ back Long time, long time, long time gone Gone gone gone, gone gone gone Long time, long time, long time gone Well it’s been a long time since a-rock and roll Long time, long time, long time gone Gone gone gone, gone gone La da da da dah, dah, daaaaaaaah...
