a long time ago — текст песни (jennings waylon)

******************* A LONG TIME AGO *******************

performed by Waylon Jennings.


Capo on the 2nd fret.

Verse 1:
B
I don`t look the way the average cowboy singer looks
E
I`ll admit i`ve taken things i never should of took
F
You can read a different story in a lot of different books
E
But even then you won`t really know
F B
How it was a long time ago


Verse 2:
B
Women have been my trouble since i found out they weren`t men
E
In spite of that i stopped and took a wife now and then
F
They built their fences high but they couldn`t hold me in
E
I was born with a fire down below
F B
And i learned to fly a long time ago


Verse 3:
B
Don`t ask me about the years i spent out in the rain
E
About the ones i spent in love or the ones i spent insane
F
Don`t ask me who i gave my seat to on that plane
E
I think you already know
F B
I told you that a long time ago


Verse 4:(a tone higher)
C
Me and ol` Willie,lordy we`ve been sold and bought
F
I guess you all heard about some kind of system that we fought
G
We ain`t the only outlaws just the only ones they caught
F
They tried to run us off but Willie`s slow
G C
I quit running a long time ago
