So Long, It's Been Good To Know Yuh Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I've sung this song,
but I'll sing it again
Of the place that I lived
[F]on the [Dm]wild, windy [C]plains
In the month called
April, county called Gray
And here's what all of the people there say

[Verse 2]
So long, it's [C]been good to know [G]ya
So long, it's been good to know [C]ya
So long, it's [F]been good to know ya
This [C]dusty old dust is [G]a-
gettin' my home
And I've got to be driftin' [C]along

[Interlude 1]
[C][Dm]
[F][Dm][G][Dm][Em][C][G]
[C][G][C]

[Verse 3]
[C]A dust [G]storm hit, and it hit
like thunder
[C]It dusted us over,
and it covered [G]us under
Blocked out the traf[C]fic and
blocked [F]out the sun
[G]Straight for home,
all the [C]people did run
Singin'

[Verse 4]
[C]So long, it's been good to know ya
[G]So long, it's been good to know [C]ya
So long, it's [F]been good to know ya
This [C]dusty old dust is [G]a-
gettin' my home

[Interlude 2]
I've got to be driftin' along
[C][Dm]
[G][C][Em][F][G]
[C][G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 5]
We talked [C]of the end of the world,
[F]and then
We'd sing [G]a song and
then sing it again
We'd sit for an hour and not say
a word
And then these [C]word

[Verse 6]
s would be heard
[G]So long, [Dm]it's [G]been
good to know ya
So long, [C]it's [F]been goo[G]d to know ya
So long, it's been [C]good to know ya
This dusty old [F]dust [G]is a- gettin' my home
And I've got to be driftin'
[C]along[G]

[Verse 7]
[C]Sweethearts [G]sat[C] in the[F]
dark and sparked
[G]They hugged and kissed [C]in
that dusty [F]old dark
They sighed an[G]d cried, hugged
and kissed
Instead of marriage, they talk like this
[C]Honey

[Verse 8]
So long, it's been good to [C]know ya
[F]So [Dm]long, [F]it's been [C]good to know ya
So long, [F]it's been good to know ya
This dusty [C]old dust is a- [G]gettin' our home
And I've got to be driftin' along
Now, the telephone rang, an[C]d it jumped off

[Verse 9]
[F][Dm]
[F]the[Dm] wall[G][C][G][C]
That was the preacher,
a- makin' his call
He said, "kind friend, this may the end
And you've got [G]your last chance
[C]at salvation of sin"

[Verse 10]
The [C]churches was [F]jammed [G]and
the churches was packed
[C]And that dusty old dust storm
blowed so black
Preacher could not [F]read a word of
his text
And he fol[G]ded his specs,
ad' he took up collection

[Verse 11]
Said
[C]So long, it's been good to know ya
[F]So long, [Dm]it's [G]been good to know ya
[C]So long, it's [F]been good to know ya
This [C]dusty old dust is [G]a-
gettin' my home
And I've got to be driftin' along
[C]
