Chords with lyrics
*****************************************************************************
NOTE: This is pretty close to the version on the album, but I took the liberty
of making a few minor changes. In other words, this is not exactly as played by
Chris Cornell, but my interpretation of the song!
This is such a fantastic tune, and one of my personal favorites from Higher Truth.
Hope you like my transcription! Enjoy;)

G+G E minorEm C majorC G+G
Put a bend in the road I?m too lost and tired
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
To see where I?m going, what I left behind
E minorEm B minorBm G7G7 G+G C majorC
And I?m moving so slow, don?t know when I?ll arrive
E minorEm G+G C majorC D MajorD G+G
So put a bend in the road, I?m growing tired of straight lines
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD G+G
G+G E minorEm C majorC G+G
I set off for the shore, that was far less I away
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
From the ones I adored, in the place I was raised
E minorEm B minorBm G7G7 G+G C majorC
And I roam down the road just to watch it go by
E minorEm G+G C majorC D MajorD G+G
And when nowhere is love? Maybe nowhere am I
A minorAm G+G A minorAm G+G
Everyone needs a touch, or a shoulder for crying
E minorEm A7A7 C majorC D MajorD
The say love is a crutch, I say love is blind
G+G E minorEm C majorC G+G
And that?s all that she needed, that I could not supply
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD G+G
With a bend in the road, put it out of my mind
Solo
G+G E minorEm C majorC G+G
Yeah!
G+G E minorEm C majorC D MajorD G+G
A minorAm G+G A minorAm G+G
Met a strange little girl, who was everything I
E minorEm A7A7 C majorC D MajorD
ever dreamed I could love or be loved by
G+G E minorEm C majorC G+G
So put a bridge, or a hill, or a forest of pines
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
Or a river of blue I can run alongside
E minorEm B minorBm G7G7 C majorC
And I?ll sleep when it?s night, I'll follow all the signs
E minorEm G+G C majorC D MajorD E minorEm A7A7
Just put a bend in the road, I?m growing tired of straight lines
C majorC G+G C majorC D(stop) G+G
Put a bend in the road, I?m growing tired of straight lines
