Miles From Our Home Cowboy Junkies
INTRO: G Am Em C G Am7 Em Fmaj7
[G]No one in sight for [Am7]fifty miles,
[Em]Sleeping fields [C]sigh as I [G]glide across their [Am]spines.[Em] [C]
[G]If I can just reach the [Am7]crest of that hill
[Em]This whole day will [C]tumble, out the[G] night will s[Am7]pill.[Em] [C]
[G]The sky as still as a spi[Am7]nning top,
[Em]Shooting stars [C]drop like burning [G]words from [Am]above.[Em] [C]
[G]If I could just [Am7]connect all these dots
The[Em] truth would tumble like a [C]Cynic vexed by [G]love.[Am7] [Em] [Fmaj7]
CHORUS:
[G]And yet people keep [Am]saying I'm [Bm]miles from my [Em7]home,
[Am]miles[G] from my [Am]home.[G]
BREAK: G Am Em Fmaj7
VERSE:
[G]I met you again in my [Am7]sleep last night,
[Em]These are days of [C]slow boats and false [G]starts.[Am] [Em] [C]
[G]Hearts remain under [Am7]lock and key,
And [Em]you will be the one to [Fmaj7]set them both free.
CHORUS:
[G]And yet people keep [Am]saying I'm [Bm]miles from my [Em7]home,
[Am]miles[G] from my [Am]home.[C]
BRIDGE:
But that's [D]where I want to [G]be.
[Am7]Out there [G]searching,
[Am7]Out here [G]fumbling,
[Am7]Out here [G]waiting
[Am7]For you and you for [G]me.
BREAK: G Am Em C G Am7 Em Fmaj7
VERSE:
The moon hangs like a question mark,
pale as milk, bold as a promise.
When will you share these sights with us?
When will we hold you in our arms?
[G]And the people we'll [Am]tell them we're [Bm]miles from our [Em7]home,
[Am]miles[G] from my [Am]home.[G]
[G]And the people we'll [Am]tell them we're [Bm]miles from our [Em7]home,
[Am]miles[G] from my [Am]home.[G]
[Am]miles[G] from my [Am]home.[G]
[Am]miles[G] from my [Am]home.[G]
[Am]miles[G] from my [Am]home.[G]
[Am]miles[G] from my [Am]home.[G]
