Lyrics
4000 miles of love
D A
She said Listen Honey
G
It'll just be a while
A
Such an opportunity
G
I gotta try
We'll be together
Now and then
Long-distance lovers
Internet friends
CHORUS
D
Now I got 4000 miles of love
G
Hopin it'll be enough
D
Somehow gotta pull me thru
G
Till I'm back together with you
A
But till then --
G A
All I've got
A D
Is 4000 miles of love
So many pretty women
Walkin all around
Maybe I should try one
But man I'd be tradin down
So ain't gonna be no sale
Make it thru another night
But tomorrow's another day
With another 4000 miles
CHORUS
D
Now I got 4000 miles of love
G
Hopin it'll be enough
D
Somehow gotta pull me thru
G
Till I'm back together with you
A
But till then --
G A
All I've got
A D
Is 4000 miles of love
We'll see what the future brings
This won't last forever
Try and make the best of things
But every day gets harder - and harder and harder
So I'm pickin my guitar
Tryin to kill some time
Hope that my baby can hear
Over them 4000 miles
CHORUS
A
But till then --
G A
All I've got
A D
Is 4000 miles of love
A
Till then --
G A
All I've got
A D
Is 4000 miles of love
A
But till then --
G A
All I've got
A D
Is 4000 miles of love
