Yonder Mountain String Band

The Bolton Stretch

by Yonder Mountain String Band
Yonder Mountain String Band

Biography:

Yonder Mountain String Band is an American progressive bluegrass group from Nederland, Colorado.

The band has always played music by its own set of rules. Bending bluegrass, rock and countless other influences that the band cites, Yonder has pioneered a sound of their own. With their traditional lineup of instruments, the band may look like a traditional bluegrass band at first glance but they’ve created their own music that transcends any genre.

The Bolton Stretch

Verse 1
D               C             G
He cracks a wicked smile, had his foot pressed to the floor
D           C                G
   Flyin' down country roads that he's been down before
D             C           G       A
One of just three men that the sheriff cannot catch
Bm          A             G
And he's travelin' 90 miles an hour, down the Bolton Stretch  

D  C  G (2x)

Verse 2
D                 C                 G
The first time we had seen his face was back in '84
D               C               G
He walked right into old O'Hares, he robbed that liquor store
D           C           G      A
The sheriff tried to catch him but the man he got away
Bm           A            G                 
And he didn't show his face in town again until today


Chorus:
      Em                            D
He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends
Em                                  D
Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends
Em                             D     A     G
Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin
            A                                    
Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again

Break: 2x

Verse 3
D              C                 G
He watches all the trees fly by, but doesn't seem to care
D                   C                G
Knows it's time to leave again, but doesn't know to where
D             C           G      A
And though he stole a lot of money, it's not enough for bail
Bm          A               G   
And there are two blue lights behind him now, the sheriff's on his trail

D C G (2x)

Verse 4
D               C               G
Since the day that he was born he spent his whole live livin' free
D               C               G
With nothing but the loosest ties to friends and family
D             C           G      A
No punishment will make him care about the things he's done
Bm           A              G                 
And if he lives another 20 years he'll live 'em on the run


Chorus:
    Em                              D
He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends
Em                                  D
Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends
Em                                     D     A      G
Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin
                A                              
Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again

Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends
Em                                     D     A      G
Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin
                A                              
Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again
