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 C C D D G6 G6 - G6/F# And I was hoping you could call me up at a long time ago
Em Em D D C C G G - G/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

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 C C D [hold] I have only dreams of yesterday and a long time ago G C D G.
