1000 MILES FROM NOWHERE (Dwight Yoakam)
---------------------------------------
[I personally like to play this in G; that way you can do easier bass runs
and stuff.]
C Am C Am
[intro]
C Am
I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
C Am
Time don't matter to me
C Am
'Cause I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
F G G
And there's no place I wanna be
I got heartaches in my pocket
I got echoes in my head
And all that I keep hearing
Are the cruel, cruel things that you said
I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
Time don't matter to me
'Cause I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
And there's no place I wanna be
F F G G F F G G Am Am
Oh I, oh I, oh I------I, I---I...
[guitar solo, same chords as verse]
Oh I...
I've got bruises on my memories
I've got tearstains on my hands
And in the mirror there's a vision
Of what used to be a man
I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
Time don't matter to me
'Cause I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
And there's no place I wanna be
I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
Time don't matter to me
'Cause I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
And there's no place I wanna be
