       I heard a bell being toll  
D                          G 
       before the break of day 
       D          G           
And my name being called 
G         A    D 
down that long highway 
 
Now, you don't get long 
you don't get long 
You don't get long to stay 
Kiss me once, and I'll be gone 
 
down that long highway 
 
Spirits call way beyond 
Lord, I may not disobey 
Spare a thought for a vagabond 
down that long highway 
 
down that long highway 
down that long highway
