Country Mile Chords & Lyrics by Johnny Flynn
Country Mile
guitar chords lyrics
Capo on 5th
C is played as a C/G: 332010
Intro: E, C, D x3
E C
I've walked in the fields, and I�ve trod light for days
D F# D G6 E
Seems I�ll do that old rag, takes me all kinds of ways
E C
Except the way I�d be headed if I knew where I was going
D F# D G6 E
But I�m from the country, and it�s better not knowing
C B7 E E7 E
And I�ve only got so near (Illuminate me)
C B7 E E7 E
And I�ve only gone so far (Illuminate me)
C B7 D G6 A Asus2
And I�ll walk another country mile
E
I�ll see another star
Repeat intro
The poplars, and willows, and birds pass me by
The mould of the earth to the space in the sky
Free from my roots and I�m lost in the wind
Wind on the mountain, and the mountain�s my friend
And I�ve only got so near (Illuminate me)
And I�ve only gone so far (Illuminate me)
And I�ll walk another country mile
I�ll see another star
Hemlock and yew have me toeing the line
Questions come knocking, I�ll answer in time
But the seams of the soil unravel with ease
Nose to the road and I�m painfully free
And I�ve only got so near (Illuminate me)
And I�ve only gone so far (Illuminate me)
And I�ll walk another country mile
I�ll see another star
C G6
Call me the wind in the hole
D E D
Blowing my way to the call
E D G6
I�ll dust up the days 'til I�ve gone every way
D C G C G C G
No less and I�ve never wanted mo-re, mo-re, mo-re
Lost on the bough in a golden refrain
Sleep goes away and the day comes again
But the rain on my cap has me chasing a roof
I�ll be this young choice 'til I�m long in the tooth
And I�ve only got so near (Illuminate me)
And I�ve only gone so far (Illuminate me)
And I�ll walk another country mile
I�ll see another star
And I�ve only got so near (Illuminate me)
And I�ve only gone so far (Illuminate me)
And I�ll walk another country mile
I�ll see another star
Illuminate me
Illuminate me
