Mile Away chords by Capital Lights

Chords with lyrics

C majorC
I'm a mile away from where I belong,
   Bb majorBb
I'm a mile away from home.
  C majorC
I'm lying awake at the thought of you gone
     Bb majorBb
And I'm a mile away from home.


Verse 1:
C majorC
On top of the world he thought, let down when he hit the spot.
Bb majorBb
Dead stare in the mirror as he drove.
DmDm
Had room for growing up, he got cold feet so he had to run
              Bb majorBb
To a city with a history of love.
    DmDm
Knowing she relies on me but I'm on
             Bb majorBb
My way to an unpredicted fall.
C majorC
Feet under the covers now, lips sealed tight till I hear a sound.
Bb majorBb
The sound of a soon redeeming call.

[Chorus]


Verse 2:
   C majorC
Now I know I never dreamed to be a movie star but I'm hiding in the Hollywood hills.
   DmDm
I've learned regret from a cowards mouth
     Bb majorBb
Wouldn't let her know how I feel.
   C majorC
Held up and I'm stuck in line, can barely get around on the 405.
Bb majorBb
Headed downtown in a half-full automobile.
    Bb majorBb
Now but deep inside I see the light, I'm a runaway victim left alone.
C majorC
At night though you lay so far, we both stare out at the same old stars
Bb majorBb
Wishing for direction where to go.

[Chorus]

C majorC
Oh, but I could never forget the guilty look in your eyes at the end.
                         FF
I walk the line like a merry-go-round, thought I learned but I lost you again.
Bb majorBb
And all at once, if the world stops spinning maybe you could let me win.
FF
Oh, but I could never forget the guilty look in your eyes at the end.
