Cross  San Fran border on the speedway
Fly  into Paris on a new plane
A  pirate laughed at me in L.A
 Then I'm smiling  at you.
I  couldn't tell you why
 Couldn't tell you why....
I  just been bowling in Nebraska
Not  to far from Lincoln border
I  met some vessels in Atlanta
Who  are aligning with you
Couldn't  tell you why
 Couldn't tell you why  I was so cold
With  you then.
Couldn't  tell you why
  Bm D7 --Slide-- D7/D (Slide to 5th)
 Couldn't tell you why I was so cold
Don't  think you're miles  and miles away
 It's just a thought  on a worried  day
Don't  cry, miles  and miles  away
 We still love  you at home
 But you're not here  now.
 We still love...
Couldn't  tell you why
 Couldn't tell you why  I was so cold
With  you then.
Couldn't  tell you why
  Bm D7 --Slide-- D7/D
 Couldn't tell you why I was so cold
Don't  think you're miles  and miles away
 It's just a thought  on a worried  day
Don't  cry, miles  and miles  away
 We still love  you at home
 But you're not here  now.
