God gave me travelling shoes God gave me the wanderer's eye
Bm D A Bm
God gave a few gold coins to help me to the other side
Bm D A Bm
Looked around and said - be careful how the small things grow
Bm D A Bm
God gives me travelling shoes and I knew that it was time to go

He then sent in the ship at night to take me to the hidden port
Bm D A Bm
Found me the key at last to open up the prison door
Bm D A Bm
Brought down blackbirds wings gifted me with beggars eyes
Bm D A Bm
Sent in the jackals to tell me I should say bye, bye, bye
Bm D Bm D Bm A Bm
I'm home Home Home, Home, Home
Bm D Bm D Bm A Bm
And I'm home Home Home, Home, Home
E Bm D Bm D Bm A Bm
But I'm miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
Bm Bm D Bm D Bm A Bm
Oh where can I hide?
Bm D A Bm
God gave me one last chance gave me one last reprieve
Bm D A Bm
He then gave me hunger gave me the air to breath
Bm D A Bm
Gave one suit case gave one last goodbye
Bm D A Bm
Gave me travelling shoes and without them I would surely die, die, die
Bm D Bm D Bm A Bm
Home Home Home, Home, Home

Home Home Home, Home, Home

Miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
