[Verse 1]
Well, I [Am]met him [C]in Minnesota
He was [G]dark and overcast
[F]With lon[Am]g,
grey hair [C]and eyes that stared
Through [G]me like I was glass
[F]I asked "Where are you goi[Am]ng to?"
He [G]said, "I'm the wind
I'm just [F]blowing through."
He [Am]lit u[C]p a cigarette and began to talk
[G][C]

[Verse 2]
[G]"See the doc[Am]tors told me
that my [C]body won't hold me
My [G]lungs are turning [F]black
Been a [Am]lucky strike's fool since
[C]I was at school
And there [G]ain't no turning back
[F]They can't tell me how lon[Am]g I've got
[G]Maybe months but may[F]be not
I'm [Am]taking this bike and
[C]riding to New York
[G]

[Verse 3]
'Cause I [Dm]wanna see my grand-daugh
[Am]ter one one last [G]time
Wan[Dm]na hold her close and [Am]feel
her tiny [C]heartbeat next to [G]mine
Wanna [Dm]see my son and
the man [Am]he's become
[C]Tell him I'm sorry for the
[G]things I've done
And I'd [F]do it if I had [Am]to walk[G]
I'm [F]taking this bike and [G]riding to New

[Interlude 1]
York
[Am][C][G][F][Am][C][G]

[Verse 4]
Through the [Am]forests of Wiscon
[C]sin that [G]I knew as [F]a boy
Past the [Am]sky line of Chica[C]go
Round the [G]lakes of Illinois
[F]I lay my hea[Am]d in a motel bed where my
[G]back is sore and my eye[F]s turn red
[Am]Listen to the truck[C]s roll past [G]my door
Through the [Am]fields of [C]Ohio as the
[G]sunshine paints them [Am]gold
I run just like a [C]river runs,
[G]rapid, quick and cold
And [F]fly through [Am]Pennsylvania
and the [G]Jersey turnpike toll[F]s
[Am]And I won't stop 'til [C]I
get to New York
[G]

[Verse 5]
'Cause I [Dm]wanna see my grand-son
[Am]one one last t[G]ime
Wanna [Dm]see his eyes spark[Am]ling
and [C]stare back into [G]mine
Now my [Dm]time is shorter
I wanna [Am]see my daughter
[C]Tell her all the [G]things
that I should have taught her
And I'd [F]do it if I had [Am]to wa[G]lk
Oh, I'm [F]taking this bike I'm [G]riding to New

[Interlude 2]
York

[F][Am][G][F]

[Verse 6]
And I'd [Dm]go up to
[Am]the churchyard [G]one last time
Lay [Dm]flowers down [Am]for the woman who gave
me the [C]best years of my [G]life[G]
And I'd do it if I [F]had [Am]to walk
I'd [F]do it if I had to [Am]walk
I'm [F]taking this bike and
[G]riding to New York"
