E
But now you know I’m long long gone
E/Eadd9/E/E6/E
like a turkey through the corn
E... (= intro riff)
with the long coat on
E
Oh, rattler, oh, rattler
(not sure)
B7
is the water calm
B7
big wig big branches
(not sure)
E (bass and drums only)
and mocking with the Lord
E... (= intro riff)
but now you know I’m gone
Ain’t got nobody
no worrisome kid
nobody but myself
to be bothered with
but now you know I’m long
instrumental: E A E B A E
If you know you couldn’t make it
you’re ought to stay at home
E/Eadd9/E/E6/E
(2x)
But now you know I’m long long gone
E/Eadd9/E/E6/E
(1x)
like a turkey through the corn
E... (= intro riff)
get it on, get it on
instrumental: E A E B A E
Oh, look at over yonder
what I see
the good kind captain
coming after me
But now you know I’m long long gone
like a turkey through the corn
with the long coat on
instrumental: E A E B A E
