HOODOO GURUS: A Thousand Miles Away
A D
Estimated time of arrival nine thirty am
A D
Been up before the sun and now I'm tired before I even begin
E A D E
(Now you're flying) I got so much work in front of me
(E) A D A
(Really flying) It stretches out far as the eye can see
(A) D
I can see
Spent half my life in airports doing crosswords or attempting to sleep
And when the bar is open then you'll often find I'm warming a seat
(Now you're flying) I never find a place where I can stay
(Really flying) I'd rather be a thousand miles away
A thousand miles away
Working for yourself sometimes ain't all that it's cracked up to be
It can be as lonely at the top as at the bottom of that corporate tree
(Now you're flying) I'm told I'm going places who can say
(Really flying) I might arrive but I'll be gone the very next day
I must be on my way, a thousand miles away
I promise to myself someday I'll take the time and try to make friends
And of all those opportunities I lost I'm trying to sit on the fence
Right now I got no time for yesterday
Yesterday's a thousand miles away, a thousand miles away (a thousand miles away)
Life was sad then you were trying to say
I guess I was a thousand miles away, hey hey hey, hey hey hey, yeah
A thousand miles away
Sing it again, a thousand miles away, sing it again, a thousand miles away...

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official HOODOO GURUS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
