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