Daddy sits on the front porch swingin', 
                       G  D   A
lookin' out on a vacant field
                                        
It used to be filled with burly tobacco 
                      D

She always thought that we'd be together, Lord, I never meant to do her harm
                                                         G   D   A

Now me, I went to Nashville, tryin' to be the big deal.

Playin' down on Broadway, gettin’ there the hard way

Livin' from a tip jar, sleepin' in my car

We listen to the radio to hear what's cookin' but the music ain’t got no soul
    D                    
Now they sound tired but they don't sound Haggard
                        G     D    A 
They got money but they don't have Cash,
         A

D                               A  
Long time, long time, long time gone
