 Organ Intro
 then with guitar
Long  red, flowin'  through  my mind
Being  here, dreaming there, two pieces of  the time
Salt  red, whispers  in  my dreams
Bits  and pieces in my arms this is always  what  it seems
Long red,  helping  you  to find a  day
Bright red,  how'm  I gonna  find a way
Bright  red, you  have chained  me too
Strange  now it seems somehow bright red  has turned  to blue
Long  red, tears  and shades  of grey
I  have changed and I have lost, forever  from  today
Long red,  helping  you  to find a  day
Bright red,  how'm  I gonna  find a way
Long  red, tears  and shades  of grey
I  have changed and I have lost, forever  from  today.
 Solo over verses and fade out
 I also recommend Mott The Hoople's live version of "Long Red", live at the
 Konserthuset, Stockholm on Feb 16th 1971.
 (you can find it on "All the way down from Stockholm to Philadelphia - Live 71/72)
 Corrections, questions, comments and suggestions are always welcome, just e-mail me.
