Aaron Traffas - 200 Miles Away
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO:    C      F      C   F  
 CI hear the coyotes calling 
 FTheir melancholy Gpierces the night 
 CI feel those wheat fields waving 
 FCalling me with their collGective spite 
 FI know tomorrow morning 
 CFate will dictate mFy part 
 DmBut I never believed in fate 
 Because GI know the coyote’s heart 
 CHORUS:
 CYou’re 200 miles aFway 
 On the other side of the sCtate 
 And I’m going round and round in a wFheat field 
 Trying to bGeat the rain 
 CThe sun goes down, it won’t matter Fmuch 
 We’ll keep on cutting ‘till the straw gets Dmtough 
 I’ll be free when we get Gthrough 
 I'll head back to town and back to Cyou 
 Outside the chaff is blowing 
 Inside my muscles ache 
 Outside the sun is setting 
 In it I see your face 
 I’ll be damned if I leave 
 Before the harvest moon assumes a crescent shape 
 I’d hit the road with the hammer down 
 If only I could these fetters break 
 I see the storm clouds rolling 
 Oklahoma's gift, the rain 
 I see the weather, unlike you
 Never minded the grain 
 The squall line across the field moves 
 Just like your life crossed mine 
 As I roll the tarp I think 
 I should have been done in time

Aaron Traffas - 200 Miles Away

CAPO: 2nd Fret

C F C F

INTRO:

I hear the coyotes calling

F G

Their melancholy pierces the night

I feel those wheat fields waving

F G

Calling me with their collective spite

I know tomorrow morning

C F

Fate will dictate my part

But I never believed in fate

Because I know the coyote’s heart

CHORUS:

C F

You’re 200 miles away

On the other side of the state

And I’m going round and round in a wheat field

Trying to beat the rain

C F

The sun goes down, it won’t matter much

We’ll keep on cutting ‘till the straw gets tough

I’ll be free when we get through

I'll head back to town and back to you

Outside the chaff is blowing

Inside my muscles ache

Outside the sun is setting

In it I see your face

I’ll be damned if I leave

Before the harvest moon assumes a crescent shape

I’d hit the road with the hammer down

If only I could these fetters break

I see the storm clouds rolling

Oklahoma's gift, the rain

I see the weather, unlike you

Never minded the grain

The squall line across the field moves

Just like your life crossed mine

As I roll the tarp I think

I should have been done in time
