1000 miles
E A
runway 4 flight 209 , teardrop falls we start to climb
A B7
this window seat proved a poor choice ,
A E
it shows a dream that’s been destroyed
E
little baby starts to cry
E A
hey i would too if not for pride
A B7
i owe so much to pride its true
A E
it brought an end to me and you

chorus :
A
if i could i’d turn around
A E
set my feet back on the ground
E B7
cause all this plane ride holds for me
A E
is A 1000 miles of misery
E
i here the engines watch the clouds
E A
the whole damn world looks distant now
A B7
i can’t seem to put no space
A E
between my cold heart and your sweet face
E
across the isle they’re holding hands
E A
revealing brand new wedding bands
A B7
our sweet gold has gone to rust
A E
now my life has turned to dust

repeat chorus :
E B7
all this plane ride holds for me
A E
is A 1000 miles of misery
