[Intro]
A D A E x2


[Verse 1]
               A     D             A              E               A
I've damn near walked, this world around, another city, another town
              D            A            E               A
Another friend, to say goodbye, another time to sit and cry


[Chorus]
         E                  A
And it's many a mile I have been on this road
     E      D           A   D A E   A D A E
It's many a mile I have gone


[Verse 2]
               A    D                 A              E                    A
I've seen your towns, they're all the same, the only difference is in the name
                 D           A                   E                     A
And the only life, I've ever knowed, has been my suitcase and the open road


[Chorus]
         E                  A
And it's many a mile I have been on this road
     E      D           A   D A E   A D A E
It's many a mile I have gone


[Verse 3]
            A   D             A                  E                  A
There was a girl, she knew me best, you know she gave my poor heart rest
                D        A                      E           A
She was my world, my joy my dear, and now she's gone to God knows where


[Chorus]
         E                  A
And it's many a mile I have been on this road
     E      D           A   D A E   A D A E
It's many a mile I have gone


[Instrumental]
A D A E x2


[Verse 4]
                A    D           A         B          E                     A
So I'll fill my glass, up to the brim, and through my glass the world looks dim
                  D                     A               E                     A
But I know outside, there's a light somewhere, maybe my rambling will take me there


[Chorus]
         E                  A
And it's many a mile I have been on this road
     E      D           A
It's many a mile I have gone


[Chorus]
                        D
It's many a mile I have been on this road
         E      D         A D A E   A D A E
And it's many a mile will go
