Tomorrow Is a Long Time - chords, tab and comments


Though written sometimes in the sixties, Dylan didn't officially cut this himself until US "Greatest Hits Vol.II", 1971. And then with pleasing assistanse from Happy Traum. Three more unreleased famous songs got the same treatment during the same September recording session: "I Shall Be Released", "You Ain't Goin' Nowhere" and "Down in the Flood" (Crash on the Levee).
A                    D       A
if today was not an endless highway
                       D       A
if tonight was not a crooked trail
    Bm        E            A
if tomorrow wasn't such a long time
      Bm                  E                A   A7
then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all

         D      E                     A
yes and only if my own true love was waitin'
         D                   E              A
yes and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin'
D        E            A     F#m
only if she was lyin' by me
          Bm        E         A
then I'd lie in my bed once again
