C
Did you ever hear the story about Long John Dean?
  G                              C
An bold bank robber, from Bowling Green;
     C
They put him in the jail house the other day,
    G                            C
And late that night he made his getaway.

     C
He's long gone, from Old Kentucky,
F                    C
 Long gone, got away lucky;
     C
He's long gone, that's what I mean,
     G                      C
He's long gone, from Bowling Green.

   C
They offered up-a reward to bring him back
     G                               C
They even put the blood hounds on his track
    C
But the doggone blood hounds lost his scent
    G                           C
And nobody knows where Long John went

     C
He's long gone, from Old Kentucky,
F                    C
 Long gone, got away lucky;
     C
He's long gone, that's what I mean,
     G                      C
He's long gone, from Bowling Green.

     C
Well I'll never forget till the day I die
  G                                           C
I played the game of love with a woman held high
         C
It was a heads you win, and tails I lose
    G                                      C
Well she played the ace, and I had the deuce

       C
But I's long gone, from Old Kentucky,
F                    C
 Long gone, got away lucky;
     C
I's long gone, that's what I mean,
     G                      C
Long gone, from Bowling Green.
     C                         C
I's long gone, from Old Kentucky,
G                    C
 Long gone, got away lucky;
     C                       Am
I's long gone, that's what I mean,
     G                      C
Long gone, from Bowling Green.
