Down the (D)street the dogs are (D/C#)barkin'
And the (G*)day is a-gettin' (D)dark.
As the night comes in a-(D/C#)fallin',
The (G*)dogs 'll lose their (A7)bark.
An' the (D)silent night will (D/C#)shatter
From the (G*)sounds inside my (D)mind,
For I'm one too many (D/C#)mornings
And a (G*)thousand miles be(A7)hind.
From the crossroads of my doorstep,
My eyes they start to fade,
As I turn my head back to the room
Where my love and I have laid.
An' I gaze back to the street,
The sidewalk and the sign,
And I'm one too many mornings
An' a thousand miles behind.
It's a restless hungry feeling
That don't mean no one no good,
When ev'rything I'm a-sayin'
You can say it just as good.
You're right from your side,
I'm right from mine.
We're both just one too many mornings
An' a thousand miles behind.
