Bound for Glory  - Neil Young

intro strummin'  G

Out on the Trans-Canada highway
                                     
there was a girl hitchhikin' with a dog
 
fireflies buzzin' 'round her head
                     
like candles in a fog

He was three miles down the road
                                        
tryin' to stay up but he knew that he couldn't
                   
she was looking for a ride through the night
                        
but out there who wouldn't
                                                    

There were bound for glory, bound for livin' on the edge
           
they were bound for each other
                               
like two comets headin' for a bed
                                                   
She had a new way of livin, new way of lookin' at life
           
he had an '84 International and two kids
                                   
he left back home with his wife


(waylon sings-same chords)

He was tired of writing letters to himself
and living in the dark
She was open to suggestions
and some say she had a broken heart
He had everything he wanted
till it all turned out to be a job
One fallen asleep trucker
and a girl hitchhikin' with a dog

(same as previous chorus)

There were bound for glory, bound for livin' on the edge
they were bound for each other,
like two comets headin' for a bed
She had a new way of livin, new way of lookin' at life
he had an '84 International and two kids
he left back home with his wife

(Go up a full step to A)


Out on the Trans-Canada highway
			     
the sun cam climbin' up the cab
                          
by the time it hit the window
                                                 
they were waking up from what little sleep they had
            
When that heat hit the blankets
                                      
They were looking for love at second sight
       
Just starin' in each other's eyes
                           
findin' it in the morning light

                                                    
There were bound for glory, bound for livin' on the edge
            
they were bound for each other,
                               
like two blankets laying on a bed
 						   
She had a new way of livin, new way of lookin' at life
          
he had an '84 International and two kids
                   			
he left back home with his wife
