G       
A hundred miles on the other side of lonesome
Em
A hundred miles past anything called fair
D                              C
Ain't no need to question my devotion
G                    D                  G
For the girl I love, all burdens will I bare.


chorus:

C 
Oh, sweet Mary, where'd you go?
G
Kissed your lips just days ago
D                                Em
Now it seems I'm steady wasting time.

C 
A hundred miles of empty road
G
Worn out hearts and teeth of gold
D                                    C
Feel like I could just lay down and die

G                                     D
On the other side lonesome Dogtown nights
Em                                    C
There's a girl waiting for me by and by
G                                      D
There's a girl that I cannot leave behind.
D                                     G
on the other side lonesome Dogtown nights
 
G 
A hundred miles on the other side of lonesome
Em
A hundred miles past any kind of plan
D                               C
All I know is I can drink an ocean
G                   D           G                   
of whiskey if I can't see her again.

 
chorus

G 
Come on down and sit a while
D
I just covered a hundred miles
Em                                       C
Think I'll sit right here and drink my fill
G
Yesterday's gone with the wind
D
Tomorrow's on its way again
Em                               C  
figure it'll bring just what it will
