A Million Miles Away chords by Rory Gallagher

Intro
Dm A Dm



Dm                        F
This hotel bar is full of people,
Dm                                  F
The piano man is really laying it down,
Dm                                  F
Even the old bartender is as high as a steeple,
Bb         A7
So why tonight should I wear a frown?

Interlude
Dm

Verse 1:
Dm                               F
The joint is jumpin' all around me,
Dm                              F
And my mood is really not at style,
Dm                                  F
Right now the blues want to surround me,
Bb          A7              Dm
But I'll break out after a while.

          F
Well I'm a million miles away,
        Dm
I'm a million miles away,
Bb                      A7
I'm sailing like a driftwood,
      Dm
On a windy bay,

      F
I'm a million miles away,
       Dm
I'm a million miles away,
 Bb                         A7
But I'm sailing like a driftwood,
      Dm
On a windy bay,

Verse 1:
Gm
Why ask how I feel,
C
Well, how does it look to you?
Am
I feel kind a sick,
          Dm
Lost my captain and my crew.

Interlude
Dm

 Verse 2:
Gm
I'm standing on the landing,
C
There's no one there but me,
Am
That's where you'll find me,
Gm
Looking out on the deep blue sea.

Interlude
C Dm Em F Em Dm

 Verse 1:
Dm                            F
There's a song on the lips of everybody,
Dm                             F
There's a smile all around the room,
Dm                       F
There's conversation overflowing,
Bb         A7
But I sit here with the blues.

Interlude
Dm

Verse 1:
Dm                            F
This hotel bar has lost its people,
Dm                                  F
The piano man has caught the last bus home
Dm                                  F
The old bartender just collapsed in the corner,
Bb             A7                 Dm
Why I'm still here, I just don't know,


      F
I'm a million miles away,
     Dm
? million miles away,
Bb                      A7          Dm
I'm sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay,
         F
I'm a million miles away,
      Dm
? million miles away,
Bb                      A7          Dm
I'm sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay,

      F
I'm a million miles away,
     Dm
? million miles away,
Bb                      A7          Dm
I'm sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay,
         F
I'm a million miles away,
      Dm
? million miles away,
Bb                      A7          Dm
I'm sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay,
