tab transcribed by Collins Crapo <roxtar@srv.net>
CHORUS (Flo):
D
Long gone lover, my baby is a
Long gone lover, my baby is a
Long gone lover, my baby is-a
Long gone, long gone
Verse 1 (Diana):
Let me tell you that he's far far away
But I think about him every day
Bm
In my dreams at night I see his face
Ain't no other guy gonna take his place
Em A7
I just kiss his letter and I feel better
Verse 2 (Diana):
He's been gone for such a long long time
But you know I'm sure that he's still mine
When the things people say are hurting me
Tryin' to make me think he's deserted me
I just kiss his letter and I feel better
D
Wo wo wo wo oh, wo wo wo wo oh
(chorus)
(instrumental, in pattern of last 3 lines of a verse)
(chorus)
Verse 3 (Diana):
I got a letter from him just this afternoon
Tellin' me that he'll be coming soon
Whenever I'm down and feeling bad
Whenever my heart is feeling sad
I just kiss his letter and I feel better
D
Wo wo wo wo oh, wo wo wo wo oh
Fading sequence (Flo):
My baby's gone down the line
But I know he's still mine
I still love him, yes I love him
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official SUPREMES tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
