Gone, Long Gone

V1
I'm gonna drink another six pack
Take a long look back
Try to figure out where I went wrong
She left me like an earthquake
In the middle of a clambake
She never even said so long

Pre
Then like a bolt of lightning
It hit me that it might be
Something that I did or said
Now she's gone, gone, gone Yeah She's gone, long gone

CH
Well it might've been my drinkin', but lately I been thinkin' that it coulda them long nights alone
Then there's the cheatin' and the lyin' but there ain't no denyin', that the only thing for sure she's gone
Yeah, she's gone, long gone She's gone, long gone
Like a cool wind on a hot night or a hot car from a stoplight
Yeah, She's gone

V2
I came to a-bout midnight
All I saw was smokin' tires and tail lights
By the time I opened up my door
I can't say as I really blame her she piled everything I ever gave her
Lit a fire out on my front lawn

Pre (use Pre)
Then like a bolt of lightning
It hit me that it might be
Something that I did or said

Now she's gone, gone, gone Yeah she's gone, long gone
Like a cool wind on a hot night or a hot car from a stoplight
Yeah she's gone, long gone

Now she's gone, gone, gone Yeah she's gone, long gone
She's gone, gone, gone, Aw, she's gone long gone
Like a cool breeze on a hot night She's gone, gone, gone,
Or a hot car from a stoplight Yeah she's gone, long gone
