G C G
Well I've walked a mile or two in my lifetime
C G
And I've traveled down some muddy tracks and dry
C B7 C
Cause if I wanted to get where I was go-ing
G D7 G
I knew I'd just have to walk that country mile
[Verse 1]
C
Now a country mile would be the longest distance
F
A man could ever travel when he's down
G7
And you curse the never ending road before you
C
When you think you'll never make it into town
[Verse 2]
F
But you meet a friend or two along the highway
C A7 D7
And you'll learn a lot you never knew before
C
And if the journey takes a lifetime
F D7
When you thought a year or two
G7 C
Well you just don't give up easy anymore
[Chorus]
G C G
Well I've walked a mile or two in my lifetime
C G
And I've traveled down some muddy tracks and dry
C B7 C
Cause if I wanted to get where I was go-ing
G D7 G
I knew I'd just have to walk that country mile
[Verse 3]
C
Walking that long mile has shown me changes
F
Changes in the people and the land
G7
But I'll bet the road to Marble Bar's no better
C
Than when I drove with trucks and caravans
[Verse 4]
F
And a country bloke is still the same old battler
C A7 D7
No matter what the place he's working in
C
And although I've covered many miles
F D7
I still can't wait to see
G7 C
What the next country mile will bring
[Chorus]
G C G
Well I've walked a mile or two in my lifetime
C G
And I've traveled down some muddy tracks and dry
C B7 C
Cause if I wanted to get where I was go-ing
G D7 G
I knew I'd just have to walk that country mile
D7 G
Yes I knew I'd have to walk that country mile
