C 
I've got my ticket for long way 'round 
F                               C 
 Two bottles of whiskey for the way 
      F                     C 
And I sure would like some sweet company 
                   G              C 
and I'm leaving tomorrow, whatdya say? 
 
         Am             G 
When I'm gone, when I'm gone 
F                             C 
 You're gonna miss me when I'm gone 
             F 
You're gonna miss me by my hair 
             C            Am 
You're gonna miss me everywhere 
      C                 G                C 
And I know you're gonna miss me when I'm gone 
 
C 
I've got my ticket for the long way 'round 
F                           C 
 The one with the prettiest view 
         F                   C 
It's got mountains, it's got rivers 
         Am 
It's got sights to give you shivers 
       C              G            C 
But it sure would be prettier with you 
 
         Am             G 
When I'm gone, when I'm gone 
F                              C 
 You're gonna miss me when I'm gone 
             F 
You're gonna miss me by my hair 
             C            Am 
You're gonna miss me everywhere 
   C                G                C 
I know you're gonna miss me when I'm gone 
 
         Am             G 
When I'm gone, when I'm gone 
F                             C 
 You're gonna miss me when I'm gone 
             F 
You're gonna miss me by my walk 
             C             Am 
You're gonna miss me by my talk 
        C                G                C 
Yeah I know you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
