James Keelaghan - Glory Bound
CAPO: 5th Fret
INTRO: C majorC FF G+G C majorC FF G+G
C majorC
Johnny Mack lived near Maple Creek
FF
He was long and lean and tough
C majorC
A augmentedA level head and a steady hand
FF
And a wizard with the puck
C majorC G+G FF
And once across the blue line, oh
G+G
He'd never let you down
FF G+G FF
You could tell by the look in his coal black eyes
G+G C majorC FF G+G C majorC FF G+G
That boy was glory bound
C majorC
He could bring the home town to its feet
FF
With a goal in overtime
C majorC
The scouts had pegged him sure enough
FF
It was just a matter of time
C majorC G+G
If there was any justice in this world
FF G+G
He'd be picked in the second round
FF G+G C majorC FF
'Cause he had the goods, there was no denying
G+G C majorC FF G+G C majorC FF G+G
That boy was glory bound
C majorC
One afternoon before a game
FF
I stopped by Johnny's place
C majorC
With my father's car and a feeling in my heart
FF
That night we'd take first place
C majorC G+G FF
There was something that he'd left behind
G+G
He'd fetch it back in town
FF G+G C majorC FF
I never dreamt it at the time
G+G C majorC
That fate would strike him down
BRIDGE:
A minorAm G+G C majorC
Ohh, we phoned the Mounties when he didn't show
A minorAm G+G C majorC
They found him in a ditch between here and Shaunavon
G+G
Roof caved in and it's fifty below
FF G+G
Sirens wail and the blizzard blows
INTERLUDE: G+G C majorC FF G+G C majorC FF G+G
C majorC
Oh, Johnny died young, but I grew old
FF
And since that time I've come to think
C majorC
When I see his name engraved on trophies
FF
Or his picture in a case in the Kinsmen's rink
C majorC G+G FF
He somehow slipped the bonds of time
G+G
He's gained himself renown
FF G+G C majorC FF
And I've started on that slow slide back
G+G C majorC
But he's forever glory bound
FF G+G C majorC FF
And I've started on that slow slide back
G+G C majorC FF
But he's forever glory bound
