[Intro]
G G
[Verse]
G Oh, the last bus has gone, G or maybe I'm wrong, D7 It just doesn't exist. G And the words that flew, G between me and you, D7 I must be crossed off your list.
[Chorus]
C D G So I'm walking the long miles home, C D G I don't mind losing you. C D Em In fact, I feel better each step of the way. C D Em In the dark I rehearse, all the right things to say. C D I'll be home, I'll be sober Em A A by break of daaaaa-ay. C D G Walking the long miles home.
[Solo]
C D G
[Verse]
G Not a soul is around, G as I put more ground, D7 Between me and you. G And the whole town's asleep, G or maybe they're deep D7 In the old "voulez vous".
[Chorus]
C D G So I'm walking the long miles home, C D G And I don't mind losing you. C D Em Got the moon there for company each step of the way. C D Em And the rhythm in my shoes keep the blues away. C D When you ride Shanks's Pony, Em A A you don't have to paaaaa-ay. C D G Walking the long miles home.
[Solo]

[Verse]
G Oh the party was grand, G but I hadn't quite planned D7 On staying so long. G And while you accused me, G the hours confused me D7 And my friends had all gone.
[Chorus]
C D G So I'm walking the long miles home, C D G And I don't mind losing you. C D Ah there's nobody out Em but the cop on the beat. C D Em He's snoring so loud that he don't hear my feet. C D I just laugh to myself Em A A and move off down the stree-eeet. C D G Walking the long miles home C D G I'm walking the long miles home C D G G Ohhh, walking the long miles home
