C
How's the weather in Winnipeg?
C
The broke down nags with the bandaged legs
C  Dm
At Assinaboa Downs
Dm
The night we painted the town
Dm            C
A dark, dark blue
C
Stolen thunder in Thunder Bay
C
Woke up knowin' that we came the wrong way
C     Dm
So we turned it all around
Dm
To the cold hard sound
Dm                 C
The turnin' of the gears
C      Dm
To the blood hard sound
Dm                 C
The turnin' of the years


Chorus:

F      G          C        F
I was thinkin' of you last night
F            G              C        F
North of the border and the Northern Lights
F         G             C      F
One horse town with the Indian name
    Em                            Am
And all the gentle words, I could never say
     F                            G               C   F   C   F
Love shines in the night, in the morning its gone away


C
Cup of coffee in old Moose Jaw
C
Used to be the hideout of a bad outlaw
C     Dm
Named Al Capone
Dm
His fedora on
Dm                  C
Walkin' through the snow
C
We headed west, then it all broke up
C
Skull-Smashed-In-Buffalo-Jump
Dm
Rockin' and a reelin'
Dm
That old buffalo feelin'
Dm                     C
Of fallin' through the air
C   Dm
And never really knowin' how the hell
Dm          C
We ended up there


Repeat Chorus

C
How's the weather in Winnipeg?
C
When the ice melts
C
On the first of May
C        Dm
On those desolate streets
Dm
One old Sikh
Dm                C
In  a powder blue cab
C           Dm
Is there an Indian name
Dm                                 C
For the love and the trouble we've had...?
