A Million Miles Away

Rory Gallagher / Rory Gallagher: Tattoo (1973)

Dm F Dm F
This hotel bar is full of people, the piano man is really laying it down.
Dm F Bb A7 Dm
Even the old bartender is a high as a steeple, so why tonight should I wear a frown?
 
Dm F Dm F
The joint is jumping all around me, and my mood is really not in style.
Dm F Bb A7 Dm
Right now the blues want to surround me - but I'll break out after a while.
F Dm
Well, I'm a million miles away, I'm a million miles away.
Bb A7 Dm
Sailing like a driftwood - on a windy bay!
 
F Dm
Yes, I'm a million miles away, I'm a million miles away.
Bb A7 Dm
Sailing like a driftwood - on a windy bay!

Gm C
Why ask how I feel, well, how does it look to you?
Am Dm
I feel hook line and sinker, I lost my captain and my crew.
Gm C
I'm standing on the landing, there's no one there but me.
Am Dm C Dm
That's where you'll see me, looking out on the deep blue see.
 
Dm F Dm F
There's a song on the lips of everybody, there's a smile all around the room.
Dm F Bb A7 Dm
There's conversation overflowing, so why must I sit here in the gloom?
 
Dm F Dm F
This hotel bar has lost it's people, the piano man has caught the last bus home.
Dm F Bb A7 Dm
The old bartender is asleep in the corner, so why must I still be here, I don't know.
Let me tell you: 
F Dm
I'm a million miles away, I'm a million miles away.
Bb A7 Dm
Sailing like a driftwood - on a windy bay!
 
F Dm
I'm a million miles away, I'm a million miles away.
Bb A7 Dm
Sailing like a driftwood - on a windy bay!
 
F Dm
Yes, I'm a million miles away, a million miles away.
Bb A7 Dm
Sailing like a driftwood - on a windy bay!
 
F Dm
Well, I'm a million miles, I'm a million miles, I'm a million miles -
Bb A7 Dm F Dm Bb A7 Dm
Sailing like a driftwood - on a windy bay! Oh, Oh Yeah! ...
