Intro
A#
[Verse 1]
A# Gm
Down the streets the dogs are barkin'
D# A#
And the day is a-gettin' dark
A# Gm
As the night comes in a-fallin
D# F
The dogs'll lose their bark
A# Gm
And the silent night will shatter
D# A#
From the sounds inside my mind
A# Gm
For I'm one too many mornings
D# F A#
And a thousand miles behind
[Verse 2]
A# Gm
From the crossroads of my doorstep,
D# A#
My eyes they start to fade,
A# Gm
As I turn my head back to the room
D# F
Where my love and I have laid.
A# Gm
An' I gaze back to the street,
D# A#
The sidewalk and the sign,
A# Gm
And I'm one too many mornings
D# F A#
An' a thousand miles behind.
[Verse 3]
A# Gm
It's a restless hungry feeling
D# A#
That don't mean no one no good,
A# Gm
When ev'rything I'm a-sayin'
D# F
You can say it just as good.
A# Gm
You're right from your side,
D# A#
I'm right from mine.
A# Gm
We're both just too many mornings
D# F A#
An' a thousand miles behind.
