Key G
(G)
Jeremiah Johnson made his way into the mountains,
(Em)
Bettin' on forgettin' all the troubles that he knew.
(G)
The trail was wide and narrow, the eagle or the sparrow
(Em)
Showed the path he was to follow, as it flew
(D) (C) (G)
A mountain man is a lonely man and he leaves a lot behind
(D) (C) (G)
It ought to have been different, but you often times will find
(A) (D)
That the story doesn't always go the way you had in mind
(D) (A) (Em)
Jeremiah's story was that kind
(D) (A) (Em)
Jeremiah's story was that kind
Instrumental:
An Indian says you search in vain for what you cannot find
He says you found a thousand ways of runnin' down your time
An Indian didn't scream it, he said it in a song
And he's never been known to be wrong
He's never been known to be wrong
Instrumental:
The way that you wander is the way that you choose
The day that you tary, is the day that you lose
Sunshine or thunder, A man will always wonder
Where the fair wind blows
Jeremiah Johnson made his way into the mountains,
He was bettin' on forgettin' all the troubles that he knew...
