When the wind blows and the rain feels cold
With a head full of snow

In the window there's a face you know
Don't the nights pass slow
Don't the nights pass slow

C G
The sound of strangers sending nothing to my mind
D C G
Just another mad mad day on the road
I am just living to be lying by your side
But I'm just about a moonlight mile on down the road
(verse)
Made a rag pile of my shiny clothes
Gonna warm my bones
Gonna warm my bones
I got silence on my radio
Let the air waves flow
Let the air waves flow
(chorus)
Oh I'm sleeping under strange strange skies
Just another mad mad day on the road
My dreams is fading down the railway line
I'm just about a moonlight mile down the road
(interlude)

I'm just about a moonlight mile on down the road
