CAPO: 5th Fret



INTRO: C    F  G  C    F  G

C
Johnny Mack lived near Maple Creek
                               F
He was long and lean and tough
  C
A level head and a steady hand
                           F
And a wizard with the puck
    C               G          F
And once across the blue line, oh
                   G
He'd never let you down
          F           G           F
You could tell by the look in his coal black eyes
             G     C        F  G  C    F  G
That boy was glory bound

         C
He could bring the home town to its feet
                        F
With a goal in overtime
    C
The scouts had pegged him sure enough
                             F
It was just a matter of time
         C               G
If there was any justice in this world
        F                    G
He'd be picked in the second round
          F       G                C    F
'Cause he had the goods, there was no denying
             G     C        F  G  C    F  G
That boy was glory bound


    C
One afternoon before a game
                            F
I stopped by Johnny's place
        C
With my father's car and a feeling in my heart
                           F
That night we'd take first place
          C                   G      F
There was something that he'd left behind
                      G
He'd fetch it back in town
  F     G         C      F
I never dreamt it at the time
                G          C
That fate would strike him down


BRIDGE:
Am                 G                         C
Ohh, we phoned the Mounties when he didn't show
     Am                           G        C
They found him in a ditch between here and Shaunavon
                       G
Roof caved in and it's fifty below
F                   G
Sirens wail and the blizzard blows


INTERLUDE: G   C   F  G   C   F  G


    C
Oh, Johnny died young, but I grew old
                         F
And since that time I've come to think
       C
When I see his name engraved on trophies
                                F
Or his picture in a case in the Kinsmen's rink
   C                   G        F
He somehow slipped the bonds of time
                      G
He's gained himself renown
         F       G       C          F
And I've started on that slow slide back
                 G     C
But he's forever glory bound
         F       G       C          F
And I've started on that slow slide back
                 G     C        F
But he's forever glory bound
