[Intro]
E C# B A
[Verse 1]
E C#
I took a trip up the west coast, LAX to SFO
B A
Was searching for a temp so low, And a summer high
E C#
The Sun swayed and set slow, Made waves with some friends I know
B
Got lost in the ebb and flow, Of the drifting tide (And I)
[Chorus]
A E
I didn't ever want to come down
B C# A
From that west coast rush and summer high
E B
And easy, peaceful sense of time (I felt so alive)
A E
Now I'm alone when I'm back home
B C# A
It's cold and old, But in my mind
E B
I, I am, Miles and miles away
[Break]
E C# B A
[Verse 2]
E C#
Pretty girls on two wheels, Dolores Heights and a laid back feel
B A
We sat and drank for a while until, The city came alive
E C#
We were smoking with strangers, We were dancing with the lights on
B
I was singing to "The Angels”, See that's my favorite X song
[Chorus]
A E
I didn't ever want to come down
B C# A
From that west coast rush and summer high
E B
And easy, peaceful sense of time (I felt so alive)
A E
Now I'm alone when I'm back home
B C# A
It's cold and old, But in my mind
E B
I, I am, Miles and miles away
[Solo]
A E B C#
A E B
[Post-Solo]
A E
Miles away, In my mind I'm miles
B C# A E B
and miles away, in my mind i’m miles away
[Bridge]
C# A B
When the buzz ain't like it was, Well then it's time for a change
C# A B
Just a subtle change
C# A B
A tongue full of only tomorrow’s, Will never quench your thirst for today
C# A B
So what do you say we take a trip miles away
C# A B C#
Just take a trip, just a little trip, we’ll take a trip miles away
A B
Just take a trip, just a little trip, we’ll take a trip miles away
[Chorus]
A E
I didn't ever want to come down
B C# A
From that west coast rush and summer high
E B
And easy, peaceful sense of time (I felt so alive)
A E
At the moment any place I go
B C# A
Is beautiful, But in my mind
E B
I, I am, Miles and miles away
[Outro]
A E
In my mind I'm miles
B C# A E B A (Quick change) E
and miles away, in my mind i’m miles away
