Five Hundred Miles chords
Peter, Paul and Mary (Hedy West) *

       C                  Am           Dm             F
If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone
        G                F              G7
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles,
          C                Am               Dm               F
A hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles,
        G                G7             C
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles.

         C             Am            Dm              F
Lord I'm one, lord I'm two, lord I'm three, lord I'm four,
         G         F       G7
Lord I'm 500 miles from my home.
    C          Am         Dm         F
500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles
         G            G7            C
Lord I'm five hundred miles from my home.

C           Am          Dm          F
Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name
       G          F           G7
Lord I can't go a-home this a-way
       C            Am          Dm          F
This a-away, this a-way, this a-way, this a-way,
       G          G7          C
Lord I can't go a-home this a-way.

       C                  Am           Dm             F
If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone
        G                F              G7
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
