Lynyrd Skynyrd Tuesday's Gone (Beginner Guitar Solo Lesson)

"Tuesday's Gone" is the second track on Lynyrd Skynyrd's first album, (Pronounced 'lĕh-'nérd 'skin-'nérd). With a relaxing pace, this fan staple has a sound a mood and feel to that of their signature tune - "Free Bird". Apparently, Allen Collins once said that "Tuesday's Gone" was his favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd song.

The lyrics are band frontman Ronnie Van Zant's realization that his normal life is finished forever with the band's new MCA/Sounds of the South record deal. "Tuesday," representing life as it was, is gone with the wind. Al Kooper adds upfront Mellotron string sounds to the chorus of the song. It is one of a few Lynyrd Skynyrd songs on which Bob Burns, the original founding member and drummer, did not play. Atlanta Rhythm Section's drummer Robert Nix played on the studio version. Bob Burns, however, can be heard playing on the demo version from the same session.

Many bands and musicians have covered Tuesday's Gone, including
