[Chorus]
D          G                  D
Kilometres are still miles to me
                   G             A
They separate from home and family
    G                 A
Now I can't count the white posts,
        D                      G
They're not where they used to be,
D          A                  D
Kilometres are still miles to me

[Verse 1]
       Bm
Oh, it used to be five hundred
     G                   D
From Melbourne to Sydney Town,
G            D
Now it seems longer
                          A
Every time the run comes 'round.
    G             A
But I just keep a-churning on
    D               G
And stand on my two feet
    A
But I'm weighed down in metrics,
                       D
Strange figures get me beat

[Chorus]
     D          G                  D
Yes, kilometres are still miles to me
                   G             A
They separate from home and family
    G                 A
Now I can't count the white posts,
        D                      G
They're not where they used to be,
D          A                  D
Kilometres are still miles to me

[Verse 2]
     Bm
The familiar signs are gone
G                 D
And I'm wondering why.
G          D
I know the dog is still
                     A
Five miles from Gundagai.
G              A
Pumping litres more than gallons
D             G
Into this old rig
       A
And my seven-ounce at the end of the day
                        D
Is two hundred mils too big


[Chorus]
     D          G                  D
Yes, kilometres are still miles to me
                   G             A
They separate from home and family
    G                 A
Now I can't count the white posts,
        D                      G
They're not where they used to be,
D          A                  D
Kilometres are still miles to me

[Outro]
    G                 A
Now I can't count the white posts,
        D                      G
They're not where they used to be,
D          A                  D
Kilometres are still miles to me
