I've changed the line " And I've heard he's out by the Frisco bay" in the original to " And I've heard he's out by the San Francisco bay" because I've read that San Franciscans REALLY hate their city referred to as "Frisco". If you sing the line so the downbeats fall as "And I've HEARD he's out by the SAN Francisco BAY", it'll scan just fine. |
(I Can't Help But Wonder) Where I'm Bound
Tom Paxton
C F Am Dm
It's a long and dusty road, it's a hot and a heavy load
G C
And the folks I meet ain't always kind
C F Am Dm
Some are bad and some are good, some have done the best they could
G C
Some have tried to ease my troublin' mind
chorus: Dm G C Em Am
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound
Dm G C
I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
C F Am Dm
I've been wandering through this land just doin' the best I can
G C
Tryin' to find what I was meant to do
C F Am Dm
And the faces that I see, they look as worried as can be
G C
And it looks like they are wonderin' too
chorus: Dm G C Em Am
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound
Dm G C
I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
C F Am Dm
I had a little girl one time, she had lips like sherry wine
G C
And she loved me till my head went plumb in-sane
C F Am Dm
But I was too blind to see, she was drifting a-way from me
G C
And my good gal went off on the morning train
chorus: Dm G C Em Am
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound
Dm G C
I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
C F Am Dm
And I had a buddy back home, but he started out to roam
G C
And I've heard he's out by the San Francisco bay
C F Am Dm
& some-times when I've had a few, his old voice comes ringin' through
G C
And I'm goin' out to see him some old day
chorus: Dm G C Em Am
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound
Dm G C
I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
C F Am Dm
So If you see me passing by and you sit and you wonder why
G C
And you wish that you were a rambler too
C F Am Dm
Nail your shoes to the kitchen floor, lace 'em up and bar the door
G C
Thank your stars for the roof that's over you.
chorus: Dm G C Em Am
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound
Dm G C
I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
Dm G C Em Am
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound
Dm G C
I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
