Bm                               D           A          Bm
God gave me travelling shoes God gave me the wanderer's eye
Bm                           D              A     Bm
God gave a few gold coins to help me to the other side
Bm                           D              A            Bm
Looked around and said - be careful how the small things grow
Bm                                  D                A       Bm
God gives me travelling shoes and I knew that it was time to go
Bm D Bm D Bm A Bm
Bm                                   D              A      Bm
He then sent in the ship at night to take me to the hidden port
Bm                          D           A      Bm
Found me the key at last to open up the prison door
Bm                             D             A       Bm
Brought down blackbirds wings gifted me with beggars eyes
Bm                          D           A    Bm
Sent in the jackals to tell me I should say bye, bye, bye
    Bm   D  Bm   D Bm    A     Bm
I'm home    Home   Home, Home, Home
        Bm  D Bm  D Bm    A     Bm
And I'm home  Home  Home, Home, Home
E                                                        Bm D Bm D Bm A Bm
  But I'm miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
Bm               Bm D Bm D Bm A Bm
Oh where can I hide?
Bm                          D           A    Bm
God gave me one last chance gave me one last reprieve
Bm                     D           A      Bm
He then gave me hunger gave me the air to breath
Bm                 D        A    Bm
Gave one suit case gave one last goodbye
Bm                               D                A       Bm
Gave me travelling shoes and without them I would surely die, die, die
Bm   D  Bm   D Bm    A     Bm
Home    Home   Home, Home, Home
Bm  D Bm  D Bm    A     Bm
Home  Home  Home, Home, Home
E
   Miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
                                               D
Miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
              A                    E
Oh where do I go?  Oh where can I hide?
Bm D Bm D Bm A Bm

Home    Home   Home, Home, Home
        Bm  D Bm  D Bm    A     Bm
And I'm home  Home  Home, Home, Home
        D     Bm    D     Bm
And I'm miles away  Miles away
D              Bm
Im running far away
