One Too Many Mornings
By Bob Dylan
G Em
Down the street the dogs are barkin’
C G
And the day is a-gettin’ dark,
G Em
As the night comes in a-fallin’,
C D
The dogs’ll lose their bark,
G Em
An’ the silent night will shatter,
C G
From the sounds inside my mind,
G Em
For I’m one too many mornings,
C D G
And a thousand miles behind.
G Em
From the crossroads of my doorstep,
C G
My eyes they start to fade,
G Em
As I turn my head back to the room,
C D
Where my love and I have laid,
G Em
An’ I gaze back to the street,
C G
The sidewalk and the sign,
G Em
And I’m one too many mornings,
C D G
An’ a thousand miles behind.
G Em
It’s a restless hungry feeling,
C G
That don’t mean no one no good,
G Em
When ev’rything I’m a-sayin’,
C D
You can say it just as good.
G Em
You’re right from your side,
C G
I’m right from mine,
G Em
We’re both just one too many mornings,
C D G
An’ a thousand miles behind.
