[C] [G] [D] [G]
Well I've walked a mile or two in my lifetime
[C] And I've traveled down some muddy [G] tracks and drive
[D] Cause [G] if I [C] wanted to get where [B] I was [C] going
[G] I knew I'd just [D] have to walk that [G] country mile
[C] Now a country mile would [G] be the [C] longest distance
A man could ever travel [G] when he's down
And you curse the never ending road before you
Where you think you'll never make [C] it into town
[F] But you meet a friend or two along the highway
[C] And you learn a [A] lot you never [D] knew before
[G] And [C] if the journey takes a lifetime [F] when you thought a [D] year or two
[G] Well you just don't give up easy [C] anymore
[G] I've walked a [C] mile or two [G] in my lifetime
And [C] I've traveled down some muddy [G] tracks and drive
[D] Cause [G] if I [C] wanted to get where [B] I was [C] going
I [G] knew I'd just [D] have to walk that [G] country mile
Let's walk that mile
[C]
[B] [G] [C] [G] [D]
[C] [G] [C] Walking that long mile has shown me changes
Changes in the people [G] and the land
But I'll bet the road to Marble Bow's no better
Than when I drove in trucks and [C] caravans
[F] And the country bloke is still the same old battler
[C] No matter [A] what the place he's [D] working in
[G] And [C] though I've covered many miles [F] I still can't [D] wait to see
[G] What the next long country mile [C] will bring me
Oh [G] I've walked a [C] mile or [G] two in my lifetime
[C] And I've traveled down some muddy tracks [G] and drive
[D] Cause if [G] I wanted [C] to get where I [Bm] was [C] going
[G] I knew I'd just have [D] to walk that country [G] mile
Hey, hey I knew [A] I'd have [D] to walk that country [G] mile
[D] [G] [C] [G]
