One Too Many Mornings Lyrics & Chords By Joan Baez

Down the street the dogs are barkin'
And the day is a-gettin' dark.
As the night comes in a-fallin',
All the dogs will lose their bark.
An' the silent night will shatter
From the thoughts inside my mind,
For I'm one too many mornings
And a thousand miles behind.

At the crossroads of my doorstep,
My eyes they start to fade,
And I turn my head back to the room
Where my love and I have laid.
An' I gaze back to the street,
The sidewalk and the sign,
And I'm one too many mornings
An' a thousand miles behind.

It's a restless hungry feeling
That don't mean no one no good,
When ev'rything I'm sayin'
You can say it just as good.
You're right from your side,
But I was right from mine.
We're both just too many mornings
An' a thousand miles behind.
