[Verse 1]
A                               G     D
 Me and Billy boy and old lady Jane
A                                        D     G
 We hitched a ride, took a fast movin' train
A                                        G     D
 Got to the top with our heads spinnin' round
A                                               D      G
 You never know just what you got until you're comin' back
 
 
[Chorus]
 G                    A
Down on the farmland Mississippi shade
     C                             D
The folks down there they told me take it day by day
 
 
[Chorus]
              A
And walk the last mile
   G       D
Before I sleep
       A
It'll be a while
          G      D
Before I get my peace
          A
With the same style
   G          D
I walked for years
        A
On the last mile
       G       D
I can rest my fears

[Verse 2]
         A                                          G    D
I got a long way to go before I reach the light of day
 A                                         D    G
Monkey's on my back I gotta find a better way
 A                                      D     G
Same old story never get just what you want
     A
The more you got the more you want
                       G       D
Sometimes you do and then you don't
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G                             A
 I guess I've always been a travelin' man
C                             D
 Cause when I'm movin' I can make a stand
 
 
[Chorus]
              A
And walk the last mile
   G       D
Before I sleep
       A
It'll be a while
          G      D
Before I get my peace
          A
With the same style
   G          D
I walked for years
        A
On the last mile
       G       D
I can rest my fears
