Intro 
Dm A Dm 


 
Dm                        F 
This hotel bar is full of people, 
Dm                                  F 
The piano man is really laying it down, 
Dm                                  F 
Even the old bartender is as high as a steeple, 
Bb         A7 
So why tonight should I wear a frown? 

Interlude 
Dm 


[Verso 1]

Dm                               F 
The joint is jumpin' all around me, 
Dm                              F 
And my mood is really not at style, 
Dm                                  F 
Right now the blues want to surround me, 
Bb          A7              Dm 
But I'll break out after a while. 

[Refrão]

          F 
Well I'm a million miles away, 
        Dm 
I'm a million miles away, 
Bb                      A7 
I'm sailing like a driftwood, 
      Dm 
On a windy bay, 

      F 
I'm a million miles away, 
       Dm 
I'm a million miles away, 
 Bb                         A7 
But I'm sailing like a driftwood, 
      Dm 
On a windy bay, 


[Verso 1]

Gm 
Why ask how I feel, 
C 
Well, how does it look to you? 
Am 
I feel kind a sick, 
          Dm 
Lost my captain and my crew. 

Interlude 
Dm 

 
[Verso 2]

Gm 
I'm standing on the landing, 
C 
There's no one there but me, 
Am 
That's where you'll find me, 
Gm 
Looking out on the deep blue sea.

[Verso 1]

Dm                            F 
There's a song on the lips of everybody, 
Dm                             F 
There's a smile all around the room, 
Dm                       F 
There's conversation overflowing, 
Bb         A7 
But I sit here with the blues. 

Interlude 
Dm 


[Verso 1]

Dm                            F 
This hotel bar has lost its people, 
Dm                                  F 
The piano man has caught the last bus home 
Dm                                  F 
The old bartender just collapsed in the corner, 
Bb             A7                 Dm 
Why I'm still here, I just don't know, 

 
[Refrão]

      F 
I'm a million miles away, 
     Dm 
? million miles away, 
Bb                      A7          Dm 
I'm sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay,

I'm a million miles away, 
      Dm

Bb                      A7          Dm
