"Tuesday's Gone" is the second track on Lynyrd Skynyrd's 1973 debut, (Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd), a long, aching goodbye from a band better known for hollering. Allen Collins and Ronnie Van Zant wrote it, and Van Zant sings it with a weary, unhurried tenderness.

Producer Al Kooper, hiding behind the name Roosevelt Gook, played bass, sang backup and laid Mellotron strings over the top, and Robert Nix of the Atlanta Rhythm Section took the drum stool. Gary Rossington plays lead, Ed King adds fills and Billy Powell's piano keeps it tender. It later showed up on the live One More from the Road, and author C. Eric Banister, in his countdown of Southern rock's 100 best songs, rates the lyric as the finest thing Van Zant ever wrote.
