First you laugh then you cry
When you think of all the miles gone by
The one you loved, and the loved you lost
And late at night alone you count up the cost

I'm chasing something I thought was real
But it ain't even close to how she made me feel
I don't care anymore if my dreams come true
I may be bound for glory, but I'm Macon Georgia blue

A hotel room, a neon sign
The sound of a voice on the telephone line
You come so far, but you can't run
From the sound of your heart as it comes undonе

I'm chasing something I thought was real
But it ain't evеn close to how she made me feel
I don't care anymore if my dreams come true
I may be bound for glory, but I'm Macon Georgia blue

This damn old freeway it ain't go nowhere
Its tear in my heart between here and there

You come so far, oh but you can't run
From the sound of your heart as it comes undone
Oh, and I'm chasin' something I thought was real
But it ain't even close to how she made me feel
I don't care anymore if my dreams come true
I maybe bound for glory, yes, it's the same all story
I maybe bound for glory, but I'm Macon Georgia blue
