[Intro]
| E | Bsus4 | E | Bsus4 |
[Verse]
E Bsus4
I left my home up in the hills
| E C#m | F#m7 B7 | F#m7 B7 |
Far behind me
F#m7
I left my wife with unpaid bills
| F#m7 B7 | | E Bsus4 | E |
She can't find me
E9
I'm trying out the world for size
E7
Find that it's not paradise
A D7
It's lonely - Oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
E/B
Now for twenty days and twenty nights
Bsus4 B
I've been alone and that ain't right
| Bsus4 B | E | Bsus4 |
Without her
[Verse]
E Bsus4
City ways are strange to me
| E C#m | F#m7 B7 | F#m7 B7 |
I can't make it
F#m7
For it's not like it ought to be
| F#m7 B7 | | E Bsus4 | E |
I can't take it
E9
Gotta face the truth one day
E7
Man can't always run away
A D7
From trouble - Oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
E/B
No, now for twenty days and twenty nights
Bsus4 B
I've been a fool and that ain't right
| Bsus4 B | E | Csus4 C |
Without her
[Verse]
F Csus4
For one day soon I'm going back
| Fmaj7 Dm | Gm7 C7 | Gm7 C7 |
Where she still minds me
Gm7
And then out of line and off the track
| Gm7 C7 | | F Csus4 | F |
But that's behind me
F9
I fooled around and did it well
F7
But I just couldn't ring the bell
Bb Eb7
Without her, no
[Chorus]
F/C
It's taken twenty days and twenty nights
Csus4 C | Csus4 C |
To prove me wrong and make her right
F/C
Twenty days and twenty nights
Csus4 C | Csus4 C |
I was wrong and she was right
[Outro]
| F | Csus4 |
All along
| F | Csus4 |
Oh, I miss her
| F | Csus4 |
Oh, how I miss her
| F | Csus4 |
Oh, how I miss her
(repeat and fade)
