Miles Away

	  		

 
 

E C#5 B5 A9 

E 
I took a trip up the west coast 
C#5 
LAX to SFO 
B5 
Was searching for a temp so low 
A9 
And a summer high 

E 
The Sun swayed and set slow 
C#5 
Made waves with some friends I know 
B5 
Got lost in the ebb and flow 
B5 
Of the drifting tide(And I) 


A9                         E 
I didn't ever want to come down 
B5                        C#5        A9 
From that west coast rush and summer high 
    E                            B5   B5 
And easy, peaceful sense of time     (I felt so alive) 
A9                          E 
Now I'm alone when I'm back home 
B5            C#5 
It's cold and old 
          A9 
But in my mind 
E 
I, I am 
B5        B5 
Miles and miles away 

E C#5 B5 A9 

E 
Pretty pretty girls on two wheels 
C#5 
Dolores Heights and a laid back feel 
B5 
We sat and drank for a while until 
A9 
The city came alive 

E 
We were smoking with strangers 
C#5 
We were dancing with the lights on 
B5 
I was singing to "The Angels" 
B5 
See that's my favorite X song 


A9                         E 
I didn't ever want to come down 
B5                  C#5        A9 
From that west coast rush and summer high 
    E                            B5   B5 
And easy, peaceful sense of time     (I felt so alive) 
A9                          E 
Now I'm alone when I'm back home 
B5            C#5 
It's cold and old 
          A9 
But in my mind 
E 
I, I am 
B5        B5 
Miles and miles away 

A9 E B5 C#5  
A9 E B5 B5 

C#5      A9                  B5 
When the buzz ain't like it was 
               B5                 C#5 A9 
Well then it's time for a change 
              B5 
Just a subtle change 
  C#5            A9                 B5 
A tongue full of only tomorrow's 
           B5                             C#5 
Will never quench your thirst for today 
           A9      B5 
So what do you say we take a trip miles away 

A9                         E 
I didn't ever want to come down 
B5                        C#5        A9 
From that west coast rush and summer high 
    E                            B5   B5 
And easy, peaceful sense of time     (I felt so alive) 
A9                E           B5  
At the moment any place I go 
         C#5 
Is beautiful 
          A9 
But in my mind 
E 
I, I am 
B5        B5 
Miles and miles away
