Mile Away Chords & Lyrics by Capital Lights
Mile Away
guitar chords lyrics
Chorus:
F C
I'm a mile away from where I belong,
Dm Bb
I'm a mile away from home.
F C
I'm lying awake at the thought of you gone
Dm Bb
And I'm a mile away from home.
Verse 1:
F C
On top of the world he thought, let down when he hit the spot.
Dm Bb
Dead stare in the mirror as he drove.
F C Dm
Had room for growing up, he got cold feet so he had to run
Bb
To a city with a history of love.
F C Dm
Knowing she relies on me but I'm on
Bb
My way to an unpredicted fall.
F C
Feet under the covers now, lips sealed tight till I hear a sound.
Dm Bb
The sound of a soon redeeming call.
[Chorus]
Verse 2:
F C
Now I know I never dreamed to be a movie star but I'm hiding in the Hollywood hills.
Dm
I've learned regret from a cowards mouth
Bb
Wouldn't let her know how I feel.
F C
Held up and I'm stuck in line, can barely get around on the 405.
Dm Bb
Headed downtown in a half-full automobile.
F C Dm Bb
Now but deep inside I see the light, I'm a runaway victim left alone.
F C
At night though you lay so far, we both stare out at the same old stars
Dm Bb
Wishing for direction where to go.
[Chorus]
C Bb F C
Oh, but I could never forget the guilty look in your eyes at the end.
Bb F
I walk the line like a merry-go-round, thought I learned but I lost you again.
Dm F Bb
And all at once, if the world stops spinning maybe you could let me win.
C Bb F
Oh, but I could never forget the guilty look in your eyes at the end.
(Instrumental: Dm F C) x2
[Chorus]
