The line, "one too many mornings" is a walk down from C to Am with the B landing on the word "many". [Intro] C Am F G [Verse 1]
       C                   Am
Up the street the dogs are barkin'

    F              C
The day is gettin' dark

       C             Am
As the night comes a fallin'

    F               G 
The dogs lose their bark

    C               Am
The silent night is shattered

       F                C
By the sounds inside my mind

    C            Am
I'm one too many mornings 

      F        G     C       Am  F  G
And a thousand miles behind
[Verse 2]
  C            Am
I gaze from my doorstep

   F             C
My eyes start to fade

C           Am
Back to the room 

         F               G
Where my love and I have laid

  C                Am
I gaze back to the sidewalk

    F                 C
The lamp post and the sign

    C            Am
I'm one too many mornings

      F        G     C       Am  F  G
An' a thousand miles behind
[Verse 3]
            C               Am
It's just a restless hungry feeling

     F                         C
That just don't mean no one no good

C               Am
Every thing I'm feeling

    F                 G
Why I never thought I would

     C                     Am
And you're right from your side

F                  C
I'll be right from mine

           C            Am
We're both one too many mornings

      F        G     C       Am  F  G
An' a thousand miles behind
[Verse 4]
       C                   Am 
Up the street the dogs are barkin'

       F               C
An' the day is gettin' light

C            Am
I just spent another

F                      G
Lonely lonely restless night

C                      Am
You're right from your side

    F              C
An' I'm right from mine

     C            Am
Both one too many mornings

      F        G     C   Am  F  G
An' a thousand miles behind
