[--]   "I'm Gonna Be(500 miles)"  by The Proclaimers
( a few bars instrumental on E )
When I [E]wake up well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna [A]be the man who [B]wakes up next to [E]you
When I [E]go out yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna [A]be the man who [B]goes along with [E]you
If I [E]get drunk yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna [A]be the man who [B]gets drunk next to [E]you
And if I [E]haver yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna [A]be the man who's [B]havering to [E]you

   But [E]I would walk 500 miles                           (chorus)
   And [A]I would walk [B]500 more                         ( " "  )
   Just to [E]be the man who walked 1,000[A] miles         ( " "  )
   To fall down [B]at your door                            ( " "  )

When I'm [E]working yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna [A]be the man who's [B]working hard for you
And when the [E]money comes in for the work I'll do
I'll [A]pass almost every [B]penny on to you
When I[E] come home yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna[A] be the man who [B]comes back home to you
And if I [E]grow old well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna [A] be the man who's growing[B] old with you

( a few bars instrumental on E )
When I'm [E]lonely well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna [A]be the man who's [B]lonely without you
When I'm [E]dreaming well I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna [A]dream about the [B]time when I'm with you
When I [E]go out yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna [A]be the man who [B]goes along with [E]you
And when I [E]come home yes I know I'm gonna be

Sounds better in the key of E
E ... A ... B... E

Give it a try

I think the last two lines should be transposed, so the Bm comes first and the tune resolves to D on the final "to you"?

Tex Moonbeam (report)

Agree with ARE1222 - the actual Proclaimers version is in E but fortunately, I sing it in THIS key, so thanks for posting - Tex

This lyric "And if I grow , well I know I'm gonna be..." is actually "And if I grow OLD, well I know I'm gonna be..."

Fun song and my first comment!!!

Thanks for posting it
Hal

If you want to play it in the right key transpose it up 2 semitones
