G Bm
Down the street the dogs are barking
B7 Em
And the day is getting dark
C G
As the night comes in a-falling
G D C Bm D (stop)
The dog will lose their bark
G Bm
And the silent night will shatter
B7 Em
From the sounds inside my mind
C G
For I'm one too many mornings
G D G C Bm Am G (stop)
And a thousand miles behind.
From the crossroads of my doorstep
My eyes begin to fade,
As I turn my head back to the room
Where my love and I have laid
And I gaze back to the street,
The sidewalk and the sign,
And I know I'm one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind.
(instrumental break over full verse chords)
It's a restless hungry feeling
And it don't mean no one no good,
When everything that I'm saying
You can say just as good.
You are right from your side,
And I'm right from mine,
We're both one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind.
(instrumental break over verse chords up to 1st stop)
G Bm
I've no right to be here
B7 Em
If you've no right to stay,
C G
Until we're both one too many mornings
G D G C Bm Am G (stop) G (hold)
And a thousand miles away.
