1. A Thousand Miles - Krewe De Groove Key: D 6:50

Intro and outro: Dm F C Dm. Main: Dm.

Chorus notes: D F G A D A G F E

Bridge / Jam D F C D

I would go 1000 miles

I would change my life style

I would dance the whole night thru

If i could just come home with you

I could work the live long day

I would take a cut in pay

I would do what I gotta do

If I could just come home with you

I would climb a really tall tree

I would talk about birds and bees

I would live in a whole in the ground

I would move to another town

I’d rent a rustic cabin

And get a horse and wagon

I’d sing a country tune

I would howl at the moon

Chorus (instrumental) w/ howls

I would make your lunch today

I would throw the trash away

I would make you breakfast in bed

Or serve it on the deck instead

I would take you to a show

I score an ounce of blow

I would get you shrooms and weed

If that’s what you said you’d need

I would by thrift store clothes

I’d put an earring in my nose

I’d put a tattoo on my leg

You wouldn’t even have to beg

I’d wear a purple tie dye

I’d put liquid in my eye

I would do the full spring tour

And be an t-shirt entrepreneur

Chorus (howls), Bridge (jam), repeat first two verses to end.

'cause the villain in me is in ecstasy / and i'm taking it all in stride

Riff x2.

all the rumors will start, don't let 'em tear us apart / don't let our love become unbound

you point at me confused at what you see / means something you can't find

don't wanna give in, take a look within / you gotta stop and check your mind, right now

Chorus

G Am Bm Am G G

I new a girl Her name was truth, She was a horrible liar

She couldn’t spend one day alone, But she couldn’t be satisfied

When you have everything You have everything to lose

She made herself a bed of nails And she’s planning on putting it to use

F C G F C G
But she had diamonds on the inside, She had diamonds on the inside
F C G F C G
She had diamonds on the inside, Diamonds

A candle throws its light into the darkness, In a nasty world so shines a good deed

Make sure the fortune that you seek, Is the fortune that you need

Tell me why the first to ask, Is the last to give every time

What you say and do not mean Follows you close behind

Chorus

Bb F

Goodbye, Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh.

F Bb

Me gotta go, pole the pirogue down the bayou.

My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh.

Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fil* gumbo

'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.

Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,

Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.

Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin',

kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen.

Dress in style and go hog wild, me oh my oh.

Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.

Chorus

Settle down far from town, get me a pirogue

and I'll catch all the fish in the bayou.

Swap my mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o.

Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.

Chorus
