Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

 I heard the door slam and I couldn't tell

Was it just the wind or was she mad again

 Ah, hell, she's gettin' in her car

 I hollered “baby is somethin' wrong?”

Thought I heard her say something

 Sounded like “I'm gone.”

 But these days gone can mean so many things

Chorus

 Well, there's gone for good and good and gone

 Then there's gone with the long before it

 I wish she'd been just a little more clear

 There’s gone for the day and gone for the night

And gone for the rest of your dog-gone life

 Is it whiskey night or just a couple beers?

 I mean what kinda gone are we talkin' 'bout here?

Verse 2

 Well, its gettin' dark out she ain't back yet

Ain't called home turned off the phone

 Ah, man, this might not be good

 I would’ve stopped her when she went to leave

 But I didn't 'cause I didn't think what I'm thinkin' now

 I’m still not sure what gone is all about

Chorus

 Well, there's gone for good and good and gone

 Then there's gone with the long before it

 I wish she'd been just a little more clear

 There’s gone for the day and gone for the night

And gone for the rest of your dog-gone life

 Is it whiskey night or just a couple beers?

 I mean what kinda gone are we talkin' 'bout here?

Bridge

 Is it the kinda gone where she's at her moms'

Coolin' down she'll come around?

 Or the kind that says you had your chance

She ain't comin' back?

Chorus

 Well, there's gone for good and good and gone

 Then there's gone with the long before it

 I wish she'd been just a little more clear

 There’s gone for the day and gone for the night

And gone for the rest of your dog-gone life

 Is it whiskey night or just a couple beers?

 I mean what kinda gone are we talkin' 'bout?

 What kinda gone are we talkin’ ‘bout?

What kinda gone are we talkin''bout here?

 What kinda gone?

This is my interpretation of the song and is what I hear. Since

U-G doesn't always include the correct chord voicings, I have

included all of them in this transcription. Please feel free to

experiment with your own chord voicings.
