One Too Many Mornings --- Bob Dylan

 

Down the [D]street the dogs are barkin’
And the [G]day is a-getting’ [D]dark.
As the [A7]night comes in a-fallin’
The [Em]dogs’ll lose their [D]bark.
An’ the [D]silent night will shatter
From the [G]sounds inside my [D]mind.
For I’m just [D]one too many mornings
An’ a [A7]thousand [Em]miles be-[D]hind. 

From the [D]crossroads of my doorstep
My [G]eyes they start to fade.
As I [A7]turn my head back to the room
Where my [Em]love and I have [D]laid.
An’ I [D]gaze back to the street,
The [G]sidewalk, and the [D]sign.
And I’m [D]one too many mornngs
An’ a [A7]thousand [Em]miles be-[D]hind. 

It’s a [D]restless, hungry feeling
That don’t [G]mean no one no [D]good.
When [A7]everything I’m a-sayin’
You could [Em]say it just as [D]good.
[D]You’re right from your side
‘n [G]I am right from [D]mine.
We’re both just [D]one too many mornings
An’ a [A7]thousand [Em]miles be-[D]hind.
