Down the street the dogs are barking
         F/a            C/g
And the day is a-getting dark.

As the night comes in a-fallin'
                             G9    C/g   G9
The dogs, they'll lose their bark.
    C                 Em/b
And the silent night will shatter
         F/a               C/g
From the sounds inside my mind
                Csus4  C/e
And I'm one too many mornings
      G9       C/g  G9 C
And a thousand miles behind.


From the crossroads of my doorstep,
My eyes start to fade.
And I turn my head back to the room
Where my love and I have laid.
And I gaze back to the street
the sidewalk and the sign.
And I'm one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind.

It's a restless, hungry feeling
That don't mean no one no good.
When everything I'm saying,
You can say it just as good.
You are right from your side,
And I am right from mine.
We're both just one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind.
