Rory Gallagher – A Million Miles Away (Guitar)

Dm                        F
This hotel bar is full of people, 

Dm                                  F
The piano man is really laying it down,

Dm                                  F 
Even the old bartender is as high as a steeple,

Bb         A7  
So why tonight should I wear a frown? 

Dm                                  F
The joint is jumpin' all around me, 

Dm                                  F
And my mood is really not at style,

Dm                                  F 
Right now the blues want to surround me,

Bb          A7              Dm
But I'll break out after a while.

          F           
Well I'm a million miles away,

        Dm
I'm a million miles away, 

Bb                      A7
I'm sailing like a driftwood,

      Dm
On a windy bay, 

      F
I'm a million miles away,

       Dm
I'm a million miles away,

 Bb                         A7
But I'm sailing like a driftwood,

      Dm
On a windy bay,

Gm
Why ask how I feel,

C 
Well, how does it look to you? 

Am
I fell hook, line, and sinker,

          Dm
Lost my captain and my crew.

Gm
I'm standing on the landing, 

C 
There's no one there but me, 

Am
That's where you'll see me, 

Gm
Looking out on the deep blue sea.

Dm                            F
There's a song on the lips of everybody,

Dm                             F  
There's a smile all around the room, 

Dm                       F
There's conversation overflowing,  

Bb            A7
So why must I sit here with the blues.

Dm                            F
This hotel bar has lost its people, 

Dm                                  F 
The piano man has caught the last bus home

Dm                                  F
The old bartender just collapsed in the corner,

Bb             A7                 Dm
Why I'm still here, I just don't know,

      F
I'm a million miles away,

     Dm
A million miles away, 

Bb                      A7          Dm
I'm sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay, 

         F
I'm a million miles away, 

      Dm
A million miles away,

Bb                      A7          Dm
I'm sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay,
