Waylon Jennings – A Long Time Ago (Guitar)

D
I don't look the way the average cowboy singer looks 

G
I'll admit I've taken things I never should'a took

        A7
You can read a different story in a lot of different books

    G
But even then you won't really know

       A7              D
How it was a long time ago

 D
Women have been my trouble since I found out they weren't men

   G
In spite of that I stopped and took a wife now and then 

     A7
They built their fences high but they couldn't hold me in

      G
I was born with a fire down below

      A7                         D
And I learned to fly a long time ago

D 
Don't ask me about the years I spent out in the rain

G
About the ones I spent in love or the ones I spent insane

      A7
Don't ask me who I gave my seat to on that plane

  G
I think you already know

  A7                        D
I told you that a long time ago

E 
Me and ol' Willie Lordy we've been sold and bought

  A
I guess y'all heard about some kind of system that we fought

   B7
We ain't the only outlaws just the only ones they caught

     A
They tried to run us off but Willie's slow

  B7                       E
I quit running a long time ago
