Chords:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long Time Gone The Everly Brothers --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard The Everly Brothers Long Time Gone (1958) (Frank Hartford / Tex Ritter) I tabbed out two versions here: 1. Studio version from "Songs Our Daddy Taught Us" 2. Live version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbKeXEwsPjw) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Studio version from "Songs Our Daddy Taught Us" --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Its difficult to hear the guitar(s ?) clearly. I finally came up with this here, which is at least close, playable and sounds good: RIFF capo 2nd fretD 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +e|----5-2-----3-2-|----5-2-----3---|B|3-3-3-3---3-3-3-|3-3-3-3---3-3---|G|2-2-2---0-0-----|2-2-2---0-0-0---|D|0-------0-------|0-------0-------|A|-------h2-------|-------h2-------|E|----------------|----------------|I use a regular D-shape and use the pinky to play the short note on the 5th fret, e-string (one gets used to it very quickly). This RIFF is played throughout the song with minor variations whenever there is a D chord. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- capo 2nd fret INTRO | D | % | % | % | VERSE 1D DYou cheated me and made me lonelyD AI tried to be your very ownG C DThere'll be a day you'll want me onlyD A [break] D But when I lea-eave, I'll be a long time goneG DBe a long time gone, be a long time goneD A [break] DYes, when I lea-eave, I'll be a long time goneVERSE 2D DYou're gonna be sad, you're gonna be weepin'D AYou're gonna be blue and all aloneG C DYou'll regret the day you seen me leavin'D A [break] D Cause when I lea-eave, I'll be a long time goneG DBe a long time gone, be a long time goneD A [break] DYes, when I lea-eave, I'll be a long time goneVERSE 3D DYou'll see my face through tears and sorrowD AYou'll miss the love you called your ownG C DBaby, there'll be no tomorrowD A [break] D Cause when I lea-eave, I'll be a long time goneG DBe a long time gone, be a long time goneD A [break] DYes, when I lea-eave, I'll be a long time goneOUTRO| D | % | % | % |(repeat RIFF and fade)--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Live version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbKeXEwsPjw --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Phil plays regular chords here. The 2nd guitar (Don) uses a capo 2nd fret and plays a slim version of the riff from the studio version during intro and outro, the interludes and generally whenever there is an E in the verses. During the rest of the song Don just doubles Phils chords playing a different inversion. The C chord from the studio version is left out and some other changes are added.
