 Digging how the guitar goes       Did you lick that line yourself
 In a song that no one knows       Formed in the voodoo magic hell

Chorus-

C               Em
So long, Jimmy, so long.
           Am            C
Though you only stayed a moment,
       F
We all know that you're the one. Singing,
C               Em
So long, Jimmy, so long.
           Am           C
Sure we're glad for the experience,
D
We miss you now your gone.
           F
We're just swimming in your soul 'cause,
G
We all wish we wrote this song.

Life goes on.
