Am Am6 x4
 
[Verse 1]
Am   (Am6   Am   Am6 )      F        E7
Traveling north, traveling north to find you
Am          (Am6)          F         E7
Train wheels beating, the wind in my eyes
Am        (Am6)             F        E7
Don't even know what I'll say when I find you
Am     Am/G     F          Dm         Am
Call out your name, love, don't be surprised
 
 
[Chorus]
Dm           Am            Dm               Am
It's so many miles and so long since I've met you
Dm           Am            Dm         Am    Am/G
Don't even know what I'll find when I get to you
     F           G
But suddenly now I know where I belong

It's many hundred miles and it won't be long

   Dm        Am
It won't be long
   Dm     E7      Am
It woo-oonn't be long
 
[Verse 2]
( Am Am6 Am Am6 )x2
 
Am        (Am6)       F       E7
Nothing at all in my head to say to you
Am        (Am6)       F        E7
Only the beat of the train I'm on
Am                           F         E7
Nothing I've learned all my life on the way to you
Am  Am/G     F          Dm       Am
One day our love, it's over and gone
 
 
[Chorus]
Dm           Am            Dm               Am
It's so many miles and so long since I've met you
Dm           Am            Dm         Am    Am/G
Don't even know what I'll find when I get to you
     F           G
But suddenly now I know where I belong
 C                G             Dm       Am     ( Am Am6 Am Am6)
It's many hundred miles and it won't be long
 
 
 
   Dm        Am
It won't be long
   Dm        Am
It won't be long
   Dm     E7      Am
It woo-oonn't be long
