Long Gone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
One of these days,
You know it won't be long,
You'll look for me
And baby I'll be long gone
I'll be down the road
You'll look for me,
But me you won't see
Yeah, one of these days,
You know the time is near,
You'll look for me,
But baby I won't be here
I'm gonna be long gone
You'll look for me,
But me you won't see
Yeah, one of these days,
You're gonna wake up and find,
This lonesome boy has changed
His cotton-picking mind
He's gonna be long gone
You'll look for he,
But he you won't see
Long gone!
Long gone!
Long gone!
Long gone!
You'll look for me
And me you won't see
