The North chords

G  Bm  Em  D  C  D (G)

G                   Bm
  Have you seen the North?
Em                D
  That cold, grey place.
C                          G/B  Em  C  D
  Don't want its shadow anymore on  my face.
G                    Bm
  A man grows bitter.
Em                    C
  We’re a bitter race.
                        D           (G)
Some of us never get to see a better place.

G Bm Em C D (G)

G                 D
  In the Northern Skies
Em                  G
  There was a steel cloud
C                       G/B
  It used to follow me around,
            Em  C  D
But I don’t see it now.
G                       Bm
  There's a farm in the rain,
Em      G                C
  And a little farmhouse.
                             D           (Bb)
There were a young man's eyes looking south.

    Bb           A7
The North was my mother.
D                         F
  But I no longer need her.
Bb                              A7
  You trade your roots and your dust.
D
  For a face in the river.
F                               Bb
  And a driven rain that washes you
F                D
  To a different shore.
          Bb          C          Eb          Bb         C
There's a North in us all but my North can't hold me anymore.
