A LONG TIME AGO (Mary Karlzen & Mark Scandariato)

[The G6 is probably played as plain G a lot of the time, but in the
intro, it s clearly G6 (320030), so I ll assume that Mary plays it
that way through the whole song.]
[intro; acoustic guitar]
[intro; whole band]
You crossed my mind again today, I was out to get the mail
And I wondered if you think of me when you re riding the rails
And I wondered if you cared at all, sometimes I don t know
And I was hoping you could write to me, from a long time ago
I had that dream again last night, we were back in Chicago
We were riding round and talking bout things you said I oughta know
And you told me how our life would be, and I m learning that it s so
- /
And I was hoping you could call me up at a long time ago
- /F#
And I think about that summer night when you said you d always care
And I think about this lonely life when your words turn cold in the air
And now the winter s almost here

[guitar solo]
And you know that I would write a book, but the story s seldom told
Of a fool who d go and walk the bridge back to a long time ago
So here I m stuck in Santa Fe in a trailer by the road
With only dreams of yesterday and a long time ago
[hold]
I have only dreams of yesterday and a long time ago
