A [E] hundred miles, a hundred [C#m]
miles, a hundred [F#m]
miles, a hundred miles.

Not a shirt on [C#m] my back, not [F#m] a penny to my name.
Lord, I can't [G#m] go on [F#m] this way, this [E] way, this [C#m] way, this [F#m] way, this way.

I'll close with two Portuguese songs.
Portuguese is very strange for me because I don't speak it.
So if there are any Portuguese listening in, please don't try to figure out what I'm saying.
I was forced to make up some of the words myself.
It's all in the old folk tradition, you know.
The words weren't all properly written out on the back of the [G#m] album that I stole the songs from, that's all.
[Bm]
If you're happy, this [G#m] song will make you happier, and if you're sad, it will make you sad.
[N]
