A Thousand Miles Away

A                            
Estimated time of arrival nine 
         D
thirty AM
     A                             
Been up before the sun and now I'm 
                      D
tired before I even begin
E              F#m                
(Now you're flying) I got so much 
Bm7              E
work in front of me
E          F#m                   
(Really flying) It stretches out 
    Bm7            A
far as the eye can see
A     D
I can see

[Verse 2]
A                                 
Spent half my life in airports 
                               D
doing crosswords or attempting to 
sleep
    A                              
And when the bar is open then 
                          D
you'll often find me warming a seat
E              F#m                
(Now you're flying) I never find a
 Bm7               E
 place where I can stay
E          F#m                  
(Really flying) I'd rather be a 
Bm7             A
thousand miles away
A                 D       A     
A thousand miles away
    D

[Verse 3]
A                                 
Working for yourself sometimes 
                               D
ain't all that it's cracked up to be
             A                     
It can be as lonely at the top as 
                               D
at the bottom of that corporate tree
E              F#m               
(Now you're flying) I'm told I'm 
      Bm7            E
going places who can say
E          F#m                   
(Really flying) I might arrive 
          Bm7                A
but I'll be gone the very next day
A               D
I must be on my way,
A                 D
a thousand miles away

[Verse 4]
A                              
I promise to myself someday I'll 
                                D
take the time and try to make sense
       A                           
Out of all those opportunities I've
                               D
 lost I'm trying to sit on the fence
E           F#m                  
(Now you're flying) Right now I 
      Bm7            E
got no time for yesterday
E          F#m                
(Really flying) Yesterday's a 
Bm7             A
thousand miles away,
                  D              
a thousand miles away (a thousand 
        A
miles away)
                  D              
a thousand miles away (a thousand 
        E
miles away)
E              F#m                
(Now you're flying) What was that 
Bm7                E
you were trying to say
F#m             Bm7             
I guess I was a thousand miles 
A    E   A   D            A    D
away, hey hey hey, hey hey hey, yeah
D                A
A thousand miles away
A            D                   A
Sing it again, a thousand miles away
A            D                   A
Sing it again, a thousand miles away
A            D                   A
Sing it again, a thousand miles away
