Too Gone For Too Long(Chords)

	        When  I first heard this I was flabbergasted.  I can only describe this as  
some sort of jazzed-up country tune with a whisp of Gipsy,  or  Romany  or  
whatever  you  guys  call  it.   And it's fast, with a tight *boom* *chic*  
stroke.  Is this making any sense?  I'm sure that what I'm submitting here  
is incredibly oversimplified and/or incomplete cause I'm doing  this  from  
memory,  so  if  anyone  can  do a more accurate tab, by all means, do it.  
Anyway, it like, kicks butt.  It's on Randy Travis' 'Forever and Ever'  (I  
think)  but  I  doubt  he wrote this himself.  I *love* it!  I wish I knew  
what this style is called, so I could look for more stuff like it.  Anyone  
who's familliar with it, please help me out here.  What the **** do I know  
anyway, I'm dutch and not even supposed to like country music :-) Send all  
your comments 'n stuff to  [email protected],  or  to  the  news  letter.  
Regards, Bo.  
  
  
Too Gone, Too Long - Randy Travis  
  
  
            B7                
You've been too gone, too long,   
  
     E7 
it's too late to come back now  
  
A7                                              D.                    B7 
It's been so long since you walked out my door  
  
                     E7                                      A7 
now you're just an old song nobody sings anymore  
  
          B7                     
I gotta a new love and she's the true love  
  
    D                                                F#7  
but darlin' how could you have known?  
  
                                  B7                E7 
Cause you've been too gone, for too long  
  
                 A7                                 D  
now it's too late to come back home  
  
  
You've been a long way, goin' the wrong way  
don't even set your suitcase down  
You wanted to roam, now you're paying the bills  
you're an old rollin' stone who ran over the hills  
I had a good cry when you said 'Goodbye'  
I didn't wanna let you go  
but you've been too gone for too long  
now it's too late to come back home  
  
I had a good cry when you said 'Goodbye'  
I didn't wanna let you go  
but you've been too gone for too long  
so why don't you just stay gone?  
you've been too gone for too long  
now it's too late to come back home
