Northbound
Capo 4
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
M1 again
Gone 2am
This slanting road goes on forever
Espresso shot
With a petrol stop
Cause I will make my way whatever
The road so dark
The night so deep
But Iâve got promises to keep
And Iâve got miles upon miles upon miles to go before I sleep
[Chorus]
By night and day
By motorway
Iâll get there any godforsaken way
By road or rail
By sea to sail
If thereâs a way home I wonât fail
Iâll take my time
A steady 70 straight down the line
Only one thing on my mind
Hell or high water come down
Iâm northbound
[Verse 2]
One more late night
On the northern line
And up to Kingâs Cross I will follow
Guitar on back and Iâm right on track
Always racing with tomorrow
And coast to coast
I ride alone
Just one more ghost
On the last train home
And Iâve got miles upon miles upon miles to go before Iâm home
[Chorus]
By night and day
By motorway
Iâll get there any godforsaken way
By road or rail
By sea to sail
If thereâs a way home I wonât fail
Iâll take my time
A steady 70 straight down the line
Only one thing on my mind
Hell or high water come down
Iâm northbound
[Bridge]
And however far that I go
Toronto to Ohio
Vancouver to Chicago
Halfway to Colorado
And into Minnesota
And down from North Dakota
Into Buffalo, New York
I tell you every time we talk
If I could get to you, Iâd walk
[Chorus]
By night and day
By motorway
Iâll get there any godforsaken way
By road or rail
By sea to sail
If thereâs a way home I wonât fail
Iâll take my time
A steady 70 straight down the line
Only one thing on my mind
Hell or high water come down
Iâm northbound
