In the Northern Skies
There was a steel cloud
It used to follow me around
But I don't see it now
There's a farm in the rain
And a little farmhouse
There were a young man's eyes
Looking south
Bb6The North was my mother A+ A7
DmBut I no longer need her
Bb6You trade your roots and your dust A+ A7
DmFor a face in the river
F/CAnd a driven rain that washes you Bb
A+To a diA7fferent shore Dm
There's a NortG/Bh in us all C
But my NortEbh can't hold me aBb/Dnymore F/C C
