Lyrics Dwight Yoakam

Dwight Yoakam

1000 Miles

Runway 4, Flight 209

teardrops fall we start to climb

B7

this window seat proved a poor choice

it shows a dream that`s been destroyed

Little baby starts to cry

hey, I would too if not for pride

B7

oh, so much...pride it`s true

it brought an end to me and you

CHORUS

If I could I turn around

set my feet back on the ground

B7

all this plane ride holds for me

is a 1000 miles of misery

Instrumental Break....

I hear the engines, watch the clouds

the whole damn world looks distant now

B7

but I can`t seem to put no space

in my cold heart and your sweet face

Cross the aisle they`re holdin` hands

feelin` brand new wedding bands

B7

but our sweet gold it`s gone to rust

now my life has turned to dust

CHORUS

All this plane ride holds for me

is a 1000 miles of misery
