Chords for Nanci Griffith-Other Voices|Other Rooms-Pt 14 - So Long Ago

_ _ _ _ This next song is come home
_ Really come home. _
It's from my little love affairs album _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ When we started out on this tour
We want to try to find some of the older songs that people have been asking for
_ For a long time and we've never taken out on the road
_ _ _ This one showed up at the bus with his bags in hand _ _ _

[Am] _ _ [C] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ Send me [Am] back back home [F] In _ 1969
_ _ [C] So my love [G] was [Am] like a forest [C] fire
And it ended [F] good for miles
[C] To [A] road with us
[Am] To temple [C] taxes [F] where I could catch the train
And I [C] remember [G] _ [Am] waiting back
At you through [F] a silly table with your cane
_ [C] _ _ [Em] Fare [Am] thee well [A] true love of [F] mine _ _ _
_ [C] I said _ [Am] farewell sweet [C] lips of [F] wine _ _ _
_ _ [C] Fare _ [Am] thee well [G] my Texas [F] rose _ _ _
_ _ _ [Em] Flew a [Am] kiss of incense [F] as the chains began to [D] roll
Long [C] _ _ ago
[Am] _ _
[C] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _

[G] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ [A] You'd gone off to fight the war [F] when I was
_ And _ [C] I [G] traded in [Am] my innocence [C] when the strings
_ [F] _ _ _ And [C] I
[G] Married for [Am] my family
[C] _ [F] one night
You _ _ [C] were [Bm] running from [Am] me and the rain [F] down on with seven _
and [C] I said
[Bm] Fare [Am] thee well [G] true love of [F] _ _ mine _ _
I [C] said _ [Bm] _ [Am] farewell [G] sweet lips of [F] wine _ _ _ _
Please
[C] _ [Bm] Fare [Am] thee well [G] my [F] Texas rose _ _ _ _

[Em] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
I _ [G] saw you once [Am] in a [C] crowded bar [F] in Vidwansk city _
I was [G] stricken by [A] the thunder of [F] our fights of 69 _
Cause [C] I live [G] my life [Am] in whispers [G] now [F] and I choose to live alone
[C] So I slip [Bm] back to [Am] the [C] avenue with [F] my collar [A] through the cold _
_ _ [C] _ _ [Bm] Fare [Am] thee well [G] true love of [F] mine
I _ _ _ _ _ [C] said _ [G] _ [Am] farewell [G] sweet lips [F] of wine _ _ _
You [C] said [G] _ [Am] farewell [G] my [F] Texas rose _ _ _ _
And then [C] you [G] flew a [Am] kiss of incense [F] as the chains began [C] to roll _ _ [C] _ [Bm] Long _ ago
