Verse 1:
   G
M1 again
     G
Gone 2am
G             Em        C    D
This slanting road goes on forever
D        G
Espresso shot
G

With a petrol stop
            Em       C       D
Cause I will make my way whatever
            C
The road so dark
             G
The night so deep
             C           G
But I’ve got promises to keep
             C          C         Am        G          D    C
And I’ve got miles upon miles upon miles to go before I sleep

Chorus:
   C         G
By night and day
   C    G
By motorway
               Em  C          G   D
I’ll get there any godforsaken way
           G
By road or rail
   C      G
By sea to sail
             Em       C       G  D
If there’s a way home I won’t fail
            C
I’ll take my time
         G D                  C
A steady 70 straight down the line
     Em        D    C
Only one thing on my mind
        Em       D       C
Hell or high water come down
         G
I’m northbound

Verse 2:
G
One more late night
               G
On the northern line
G         Em           C      D
And up to King’s Cross I will follow
         G                G
Guitar on back and I’m right on track
        Em     C   D
Always racing with tomorrow
            C
And coast to coast
       G
I ride alone
              C
Just one more ghost
                  G
On the last train home
            C           C         Am                G    D   C
And I’ve got miles upon miles upon miles to go before I’m home

Chorus:
   C        G
By night and day
   C     G
By motorway
               Em  C          G   D
I’ll get there any godforsaken way
           G
By road or rail
   C      G
By sea to sail
             Em       C       G  D
If there’s a way home I won’t fail
            C
I’ll take my time
         G D                C
A steady 70 straight down the line
     Em        D     C
Only one thing on my mind
        Em       D      C
Hell or high water come down
         G
I’m northbound

Bridge:
                    C
And however far that I go
   G         D
Toronto to Ohio
                 C
Vancouver to Chicago
    G           D
Halfway to Colorado
              C
And into Minnesota
     G                D
And down from North Dakota
                  C
Into Buffalo, New York
                         G    D
I tell you every time we talk
           D               C
If I could get to you, I’d walk

C         G
By sea to sail

If there’s a way home I won’t fail
            C
I’ll take my time
         G D                C
A steady 70 straight down the line

Hell or high water come down
