Neil Young — Bound For Glory Chords

Tabbed by Michael Shaw

Bound for Glory  — Neil Young

intro strummin'  G

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

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

There were bound for glory, bound for livin' on the edge
           D
they were bound for each other
                               G
like two comets headin' for a bed
                                                   Am
She had a new way of livin, new way of lookin' at life
           D
he had an '84 International and two kids
                   C                G
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)

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

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