Jackson Browne
Jackson Browne
Saturate Before Using
1972
My friend Chris suggested that I buy Jackson's first album,
so I did and love it. This is my first acoustic song from it.
It's a really cool-sounding song, and I hope you enjoy it.

Did you see our brother he was here the other day
F#m Bm Em
But he only came to say that he was leaving
A D Asus4 A
Did you see his lady she was lookin' where he'd gone
F#m Bm Em
But she wasn't letting on that she was grieving
CHORUS
A D
She's bound to go
G A D
Perhaps she'll find him waiting for his boat in some city far away
Asus4 A G F#m Em D
She's bound to go
Lately I remember afternoons of smoke and wine
There was nothing we could find but peace and pleasure
With a smile he told me that he wanted just to be
On his way across the sea no man can measure
CHORUS
He won't be back
And the sun may find him sleeping in the dust of some ruin far away
He won't be back
BRIDGE
G D Asus4 A
Early today as I watched while the skyline was shaking I heard a rumbling
G D Asus4
Early today a mechanical city was waking and I ran out stumbling
D
Mumbling out through the laughter of children and dogs
Did you see our brother he was here the other day
But he only came to say that he can't breathe here
Did you see his lady she was reaching for his hand
Just as if to tell the man that she can't either
CHORUS
They're bound to go
The sun may find me running after them seeing something far away
Asus4 A G F#m Em D
We won't be back
Asus4 A D
