Joan Baez — 500 miles

E                  C#m           F#m             A 
If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone 
        F#m               A              B 
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles, 
          E                C#m 
A hundred miles, a hundred miles, 
          F#m               A 
A hundred miles, a hundred miles, 
        F#m               A              B 
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles 

      E           C#m          F#m          A 
Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name 
        F#m               A                B 
And the land that I once loved was not my own 
         E             C#m            F#m              A 
Lord I'm one, Lord I'm two, Lord I'm three, Lord I'm four, 
         F#m           A               B 
Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home 

          E               C#m 
A hundred tanks along the square, 
        F#m                    A 
One man stands and stops them there 
         F#m                  A                 B 
Some day soon, the tide will turn, and I'll be free 
        E             C#m              F#m         A 
I'll be free, I'll be free, I'll come home to my country, 
         F#m                 A                B 
Some day soon the tide will turn and I'll be free 

       E                  C#m           F#m             A 
If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone 
        F#m               A              B 
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles, 
          E                C#m 
A hundred miles, a hundred miles, 
          F#m               A 
A hundred miles, a hundred miles, 
        F#m               A              B 
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles.
