         C                         G7
   I've  sung this song,  but I'll sing it again
         C                         G7
  Of the place that I lived on the wild windy plains
         C                C7       F             F#dim7
  In the month   called   April,   county called Gray
         G7                                  C
    And  here's what all of the people there say

C
So long, it's been good to know yuh
G7                         C            C7         F
So long, it's been good to know yuh; so long, it's been good to know yuh
     C                   G7                                F         C
This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home, & I've got to be driftin' along

         C                         G7
      A  dust  storm  hit,  &  it  hit like thunder
         C                         G7
     It  dusted  us  over,  &  it  covered us under
         C               C7        F               F#dim7
         Blocked out the traffic & blocked out the sun
         G7                                   C
         Straight for home all the people did run, singin'

C
So long, it's been good to know yuh
G7                         C            C7         F
So long, it's been good to know yuh; so long, it's been good to know yuh
     C                   G7                                F         C
This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home, & I've got to be driftin' along

         C                        G7
     We  talked of the end of the world & then
         C                        G7
         We'd sing a song  & then sing it again
         C              C7        F         F#dim7
   We'd  sit  for   an  hour   &  not say a word
         G7                        C
    And  then these words would be heard

C
So long, it's been good to know yuh
G7                         C            C7         F
So long, it's been good to know yuh; so long, it's been good to know yuh
     C                   G7                                F         C
This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home, & I've got to be driftin' along

         C                       G7
         Sweethearts sat  in the dark & sparked
         C                       G7
   They  hugged & kissed in that dusty old dark
         C             C7        F        F#dim7
   They  sighed    &   cried,    hugged & kissed
         G7                                 C
      Instead of marriage, they talked like this: "Honey..."

C
So long, it's been good to know yuh
G7                         C            C7         F
So long, it's been good to know yuh; so long, it's been good to know yuh
     C                   G7                                F         C
This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home, & I've got to be driftin' along

         C                           G7
 Now the telephone   rang,   &  it   jumped off the wall
         C                           G7
         That  was  the  preacher  a-makin' his call
         C              C7           F          F#dim7
         He said, "Kind friend, this may be the end &
         G7                                   C
 You've  got your last chance of salvation of sin"

C  G7  C  C7  F  C  G7  F  C

         C                         G7
    The  churches was jammed & the churches was packed
         C                         G7
And that dusty  old   dust  storm  blowed so black
         C              C7         F           F#dim7
         Preacher could not read a word of his text
         G7                               C
And  he  folded his specs & he took up collection, said

C
So long, it's been good to know yuh
G7                         C            C7         F
So long, it's been good to know yuh; so long, it's been good to know yuh
     C                   G7                                F         C
This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home, & I've got to be driftin' along
