Walk A Country Mile

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
