A Thousand Miles Away Chords

[Verse 1]
A                                      D
Estimated time of arrival nine thirty AM
     A                                                   D
Been up before the sun and now I'm tired before I even begin
E                   F#m           Bm7              E
(Now you're flying) I got so much work in front of me
E                  F#m               Bm7            A
(Really flying) It stretches out far as the eye can see
A     D
I can see
 
[Verse 2]
      A                                                          D
Spent half my life in airports doing crosswords or attempting to sleep
    A                                                        D
And when the bar is open then you'll often find me warming a seat
E                   F#m              Bm7               E
(Now you're flying)   I never find a place where I can stay
E               F#m               Bm7             A
(Really flying)   I'd rather be a thousand miles away
A                 D     A     D
A thousand miles away

Working for yourself sometimes ain't all that it's cracked up to be
             A                                                    D
It can be as lonely at the top as at the bottom of that corporate tree
E                       F#m            Bm7            E
(Now you're flying) I'm told I'm going places who can say
E               F#m                          Bm7                A
(Really flying)   I might arrive but I'll be gone the very next day
A               D
I must be on my way,
A                   D
  a thousand miles away

  A                                                            D
I promise to myself someday I'll take the time and try to make sense
       A                                                           D
Out of all those opportunities I've lost from trying to sit on the fence
E                   F#m                Bm7            E
(Now you're flying) Right now I got no time for yesterday
E               F#m           Bm7             A
(Really flying) Yesterday's a thousand miles away,
                  D                      A
a thousand miles away (a thousand miles away)
                  D                      E
a thousand miles away (a thousand miles away)
E                   F#m                Bm7                E
(Now you're flying) What was that that you were trying to say
  F#m           Bm7             A    E   A   D            A    D
I guess I was a thousand miles away, hey hey hey, hey hey hey, yeah
D                A
(A thousand miles away)
A            D                    A
Sing it again, (a thousand miles away)
A            D                    A
Sing it again, (a thousand miles away)
A            D                    A
Sing it again, (a thousand miles away)
