When I wake up, well I know I'm gonna be,
                                        
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you

When I go out, yeah I know I'm gonna be
                                       
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

If I get drunk, well I know I'm gonna be
                                          
I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you

And if I haver, hey I know I'm gonna be
                                     
I'm gonna be the man who's havering to you

(Chorus) UnPM

But I would walk 500 miles
                                      
                *              *Five Hundred
And I would walk 500 more
                                       
Just to be the man who walks a thousand miles
                    
To fall down at your door


When I'm working, yes I know I'm gonna be
                                          
I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you

And when the money, comes in for the work I do
                                 
I'll pass almost every penny on to you

When I come home(When I come home), well I know I'm gonna be
                                          
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you

And if I grow , well I know I'm gonna be
                                          
I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you

(chorus)

E A B rythm same as chorus
fa la la (fa la la)
fa la la (fa la la)

fa la la (fa la la)
fa la la (fa la la)


When I'm lonely, well I know I'm gonna be
                                        
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you

And when I'm dreaming, well I know I'm gonna dream
                                           
I'm gonna Dream about the time when I'm with you

When I go out(When I go out), well I know I'm gonna be
                        
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

And when I come home(When I come home), yes I know I'm gonna be
                                             Stop strumming
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home with you

*(hit only once for this line)
                                          
I'm gonna be the man who's coming home with you

Ok resume strumming

(Chorous)

fa la la (fa la la)
fa la la (fa la la)

fa la la (fa la la)
fa la la (fa la la)

fa la la (fa la la)
fa la la (fa la la)

Da Da Da Dun Diddle Un Diddle Un Diddle Uh Da Da

fa la la (fa la la)
fa la la (fa la la)

(Chorus)

End on a strum of E

This was my first chord i recorded because i figured it would be easy enough to write a 
accurate one, i checked it over again and again and it all fits. if any one is 
in playing the power chords as used in the song the chords are still A B E but they are played like so
           
-|-------------------|
-|-------------------|
-|-----------9-------|
-|----7---9--9-------|
-|----7---9--7-------|
-|----5---7----------|

i personaly prefer chords but its all preferances.

i hope you all enjoy 500 miles its fun to sind along or try to get your friends and 
tosing along while you just strum away.

please leave comments or suggestions this is my first contribution to ultimate guitar. 
you.
