       F#7
I have tried to forget about you

            F#7
And all the plans that we had planned

F#7
Yes, and I'm bound to leave this town

F#7
I don't care where I may land
E/F# F#7 E/F# F#7 [Verse 2]
E/F#                          F#7
If what they're telling me is true

E/F#                      F#7
You have found somebody new to love you

E/F#                             F#7
There ain't but one thing I can do, baby

E/F#                         F#7              B7
To save my heart from being broken in two by you

A         E/G#     F#
Baby, I'm moving through
[Chorus]

There's nothing like a hundred miles between me and trouble in my mind

        A               A/C#       E      B                  F#  F#/G#
There's nothing like a hundred miles, show me the yellow line

        A               A/C#       E           B            F#  F#/G#
There's nothing like a hundred miles when I'm only passing through

There's nothing like a hundred miles to make me forget about you

  A/G#      E/F#
Forget about you, baby
F#7 E/F# F#7 [Verse 3]
E/F#                           F#7
Now don't we like our fond farewells

E/F#                            F#7
And don't we like to keep our goodbyes nice and clean

E/F#                     F#7
You may wish I'd go to hell

E/F#                      F#7
While you tell me what a pleasure it's been

    B7   A         E/G#   F#
So long, baby, I'm moving on
[Chorus]
F#/G#   A               A/C#       E           B               F#  F#/G#
There's nothing like a hundred miles between me and trouble in mind

        A               A/C#       E             B                  F#  F#/G#
There's nothing like a hundred miles, somebody show me the yellow line

        A               A/C#       E           B            F#  F#/G#
There's nothing like a hundred miles when I'm only passing through

        A               A/C#       E               B7            E/B  B  A

       F#7
I have tried to forget about you

But baby, I have failed

        F#7
Just as long as I stay in Houston

  F#7
I will
