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