Jim Yester, in the liner notes to the Japanese _From The Original Master
Tapes_ CD (Warner/Pioneer WPCP-3536):
  This song got us our first major record deal.  Thanks to the three "B"s,
  Barry, Billy, and Bud (Valiant Records) who saw something in us when we
  sang this for them at an afternoon audition at the Troubador in West
  L.A.  The arrangement of the song was our first involvement with Clark
  Burroughs (of Hi-Los fame) who later did most of the vocal arranging for
  the "Insight Out" album.

sang this for them at an afternoon audition at the Troubador in West

L.A. The arrangement of the song was our first involvement with Clark

Verse 1:

Down the street the dogs are barkin'

G A

And the day it's gettin' dark

C#m F#m

As the night comes in a fallin'

D E7sus4 B E

The dogs will lose their bark

And the silent night will shatter

G A

From the sounds inside my mind

C#m F#m

And I'm one too many mornings

Bm E7sus4 B E A

And a thousand miles behind

Verse 2:

And from the crossroads of my doorstep

My eyes they start to fade

As I turn my head back to the room

Where my love and I have laid

And I gaze back to the street

The sidewalk and the sign

And I'm one too many mornings

And a thousand miles behind

Verse 3:

And it's a restless hungry feeling

It don't mean no one no good

When everything that I am saying

You can say it just as good

Yes, I know you're right from your side

A Ab G

I'm right from mine

We're both just too many mornings

And a thousand miles behind
