"Long Gone" - Chris Cornell
Chords by Joan's Genius 2009


Intro: Am Am7 Dm Am


Verse 1:
Am Am7  Dm                 Am
Baby, I used to watch your flowers grow
         Am  Am7     Dm              Am
Now it's raining and all your petals turn to stone
          Am Am7    Dm              Am
I've been praying I turn around and see my rose
        Am Am7     Dm               Am
But you faded, you left me now it's time to go


Pre-Chorus:
G                         Am
You're like a diamond and I'm like glass
     G                Am
Like oil and water we always clash
    G                        Am      
Sometimes my confessions are hard for me
     G                            Am 
I'll tell you now I'm setting you free


Chorus:
               Am         Am7            Dm                 Am 
That's why I'm long gone, long gone, you need to let me fly alone (3x)
               Am         Am7           Dm                  Am  
That's why I'm long gone, long gone, it may be too late our time is done


Verse 2:
Am Am7   Dm                    Am
Baby   I think you've got your timing wrong
Am Am7  Dm                         Am
Hating, exploring this while we're riding on
         Am Am7   Dm                 Am
And it's crazy to think that I could be reborn
       Am Am7    Dm                           Am
If you saved me, now it's too late and you'll never know


(repeat Pre-Chorus & Chorus)


Bridge: (do this 2x)
Am          Am7                                Dm 
With broken wings (with broken wings), I can't fly (I can't fly)
                               Am      
I'm gonna need you to save me, angel of mine


(repeat Chorus, then Pre-Chorus)
