COUNTRY MILE
As recorded by Rory Gallagher
(From the 1976 Album CALLING CARD)
Capo 3rd fret

[Intro]
E5

[Verse 1]
E5
Well I was born on the side of a road
E5
A gap in the hedge
E5
Did you hear what I said
E5
Born in a house with no slates
E5
But I wouldn't switch
E5
I didn't have a stitch
E5
Always been out on a limb
E5
I've been hard to mend
E5
Like a kick in the shins
G5 D5
You'll only see me smile
G5 D5 E5 N.C.
When I eat up a country mile

[Verse 2]
E5
Born on the green light, a mission to move
E5
Something to prove, an itch in my shoes
E5
I heard then wail of a train
E5
From a burnin' stack and I jumped on the back
E5
Well the engineer threw the switch
E5
And it got to my brain, I've never been the same
G5 D5
You'll only see me smile
G5 D5 E5 N.C. E5
When I eat up a country mile

[Bridge]
A5
Gotta make tracks, gotta raise the dust
A5
Grease my heels
A5
Out race the bus
A5
Don't blink your eyes
B5 N.C.
Or you won't see me again

[Guitar Solo]
