6000 Cmiles behind I left you
6000 Gmiles feels so alone
6000 Ammiles I’d have to travel
6000 Fmiles to get back home
I’d have to Csail oceans boundless
I’d have to Gcross endless skies
Some nights I do Amdream I can grow wings
And I can Ffly that 6000 Cmiles back home Gto you
ohhAmhhhF  
I traded you Cfor some great adventure
Stepped out iGnto a world unknown
To far away lAmands did I wander
Whose deserts and Fmountains I now roam
But I Cjust can’t let go of your golden shores
I still Gcrave your salty air
And if DI was standing on the edge of
heaven on eaFrth tonight
I couldn’t Ccare about anything Gless than 6000
Ammiles ohhFhhC  G  Am  F  
I’ve Cnever really had much of a way with words
But god Gknows I love to sing
The feel of tAmhis sound coming through me
The feel of the Fjoy inside that it brings
So toCnight I’ll be your minstrel
You be my Gsilent beating drum
Whenever that Dmusic plays inside us
Not even Foceans, not even oceans... can keep us 
Capart Not eveGn.... 6000 Ammiles oh Foh oh 
C     G     Am
6000 Fmiles to get back home, to you

6000 miles behind I left you

6000 miles feels so alone

6000 miles I’d have to travel

6000 miles to get back home

I’d have to sail oceans boundless

I’d have to cross endless skies

Some nights I do dream I can grow wings

F C G

And I can fly that 6000 miles back home to you

Am F

ohhhhh

I traded you for some great adventure

Stepped out into a world unknown

To far away lands did I wander

Whose deserts and mountains I now roam

But I just can’t let go of your golden shores

I still crave your salty air

And if I was standing on the edge of

heaven on earth tonight

C G

I couldn’t care about anything less than 6000

Am F C G Am F

miles ohhhh

I’ve never really had much of a way with words

But god knows I love to sing

The feel of this sound coming through me

The feel of the joy inside that it brings

So tonight I’ll be your minstrel

You be my silent beating drum

Whenever that music plays inside us

Not even oceans, not even oceans... can keep us

C G Am F

apart Not even.... 6000 miles oh oh oh

C G Am

6000 miles to get back home, to you
