Miles Away Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Drums and keyboard]
[Em]I pack my bags[G]
and say good[D]bye to my wife
For what seems like the [C]millionth time
They said it gets easier, but they [Em]lied
She looks at [G]me and says,
"Real[D]ly baby, I will be just [C]fine"
But then she looks away
so I don't have to see her cry
And [Em]that is [D]when I [Em]ask m[D]yself

[Chorus 1]
[Em]How am I[D] supposed to b[C]e
Everything they expect me to [Em]be
When I feel [D]so alone,
[C]'Cause I left my heart at hom[Em]e
She [D]needs me, but I [C]know they need me too
So [Em]God, give me the [D]strength to do
[C]what you created me to do[Em]

[Verse 2]
[Em]Really I'm so th[G]ankful
for the [D]people I meet
The places I've been and the [C]things I've seen
But when she's not here
It doesn't feel like I'm living my [Em]dream
I know they [G]say that no one is [D]perfect,
But I swear she's perfect for [C]me

[Chorus 2]
And that makes it so much harder to leave
[Em]How am I[D] supposed to b[C]e
Everything they expect me to [Em]be
When I feel [D]so alone,
[C]'Cause I left my heart at hom[Em]e
She [D]needs me, but I [C]know they need me too
So [Em]God, give me the [D]strength to do
[C]what you created me to do

[Bridge 1]
[Em]If you miss [D]me,
I'm [G]just a phone call a[Am]way
[B]Please be str[Em]ong, be str[D]ong for me
[G][Am][B]
[Em]I need you to show[D] me
how to [G]change the inside of [Am]me
[B]For my hea[Em]rt, for their sak[D]e
Be [G]strong, be [Am]strong [C]for [Em]me!
How am [G]I supposed to b[D]e
Everything they expect me to [C]be

[Chorus 3]
When I feel so alone, so alone!
[Em]How am I[D] supposed to b[C]e
Everything they expect me to [Em]be
When I feel [D]so alone,
[C]'Cause I left my heart at hom[Em]e
She [G]needs me, but I [C]know they need me too
So [Em]God, give me the [D]strength to [C]do
what you created me to [Em]do
[Drums and keyboard]
[Fade out]
