I've sung this song, 
 1   1    -2  2 -2  -1
but I'll sing it a-gain,
3   3   3   3   3    2
Of the peo-ple I’ve met
 1   1   -2  2   -2   -1
And the plac-es I’ve seen 
2   1   1   1   2    -1
Of some of the trou-bles
 1    -2   -2  -2  -3
That both-ered my mind
-3 -3  3  3   3    3  -2
And a lot of good peo-ple
 2    -1   2   -1  1     2  -2
That I’ve left be-hind, say-ing

3   2     3    3    -3  3   3    2
So long, it's been good to know yuh;
-2  -1    3    3    -3  3   3    2
So long, it's been good to know yuh;
3   4     -4   -3   -3  -3  4   -4
So long, it's been good to know yuh.

What a long time since I’ve been home
 2 -2  3  -3 3   -2   2  -1  1
And I got to be drift-in' a-long.

Sweethearts sat in the dark and sparked,
They hugged and kissed in that dusty old dark.
They sighed and cried, hugged and kissed,
Instead of marriage, they talked like this:
