Eight More Miles

C
Eight more miles - and I'll be home
             F
Back in your grace - where I belong
            C
Tonight I'm sleepin' - in my own bed
        G7
With my blue tick feather pillow underneath my head
           C
I feel the wheels - on sixty-five
             F
I don't know when - I felt so alive
           C                  G7
Eight more miles - eight more miles
            C
And I'll be home


[Verse 2]

Since I've been gone - everything's changed

                 F
There's been two weeks - of steady rain
             C
The dogwoods bloomed - pink and white
         G7
And that damp smell of new cut grass is everywhere tonight
            C
Sweet sunny south - I never knew
         F
Just how much - I could miss you
           C                  G7
Eight more miles - eight more miles
            C
And I'll be home

[Verse 3]

I crossed the Rockies - on a silver train
                 F
I walked through Bergen - in pouring rain
              C
I've met with strangers - I came to love
         G7
And I've gotten drunk with Chieftains in a Dublin hotel pub
             C
And I dearly love - these memories
         F
All that matters - right now to me
              C                  G7
Is eight more miles - eight more miles
            C
And I'll be home
