[Verse]
GAD
Came into this world, I was lost not found
GDAG
It did not hold me in its arms like it holds me now
GAD
So I dreamed myself a bird who could cross the waves
GDAG
And I woke up just a man who was miles away
[Chorus]
GDGDG
Miles away, miles away, miles away, miles away
[Verse]
GAD
So I went to Cape Canaveral and I went to the moon
GDAG
And I stayed up there for a year or two
GAD
Famous picture of me above the blue parade
GDAG
A man a million miles up, still miles away
[Chorus]
GDGDG
Miles away, miles away, miles away, miles away
[Verse]
GAD
So I went back to Kansas, it was summertime
GDAG
Brought flowers to my family by the riverside
GAD
At the end of his life, they said my father had changed
GDAG
I suppose we could have been friends, but I was miles away
[Chorus]
GDGDG
Miles away, miles away, miles away, miles away
[Verse]
GAD
Honey, you don't belong in a place like this
GDAG
With your long yellow hair and your hips
GAD
But the look in your eye is like the world from space
GDAG
The way the sun hits off the water from miles away
[Chorus]
GDGDG
Miles away, miles away, miles away, miles away
[Outro]
GD
Honey, can you leave your light on?
DG
Honey, can you leave your light on?
GD
Honey, can you leave your light on?
DG
Honey, can you leave your light on?
GDG
I'm miles away, miles away
DG
Miles away, miles away
