Biography:
Toronto-based trio The Rural Alberta Advantage (Nils Edenloff, Amy Cole, and Paul Banwatt) play indie-rock songs about hometowns and heartbreak, born out of images from growing up in Central and Northern Alberta. They sing about summers in the Rockies and winters on the farm, ice breakups in the spring time and the oil boom’s charm, the mine workers on compressed, the equally depressed, the city’s slow growth and the country’s wild rose, but mostly the songs just try to embrace the advantage of growing up in Alberta.

F
Oh let's lie down for another night
I'll hold you close under these skies
Dm
Your brother's in the basement doing hot knives
Your brother's in the basement doing hot knives
F
We struggle to tear ourselves apart in the night
We struggle to tear ourselves apart in the light
Dm
Your father's on his way back home from site
Your mother's in the kitchen batting her eyelash
Bb
She would never want to be the one to despise
C
And our heartbeats stop as we plunge through the ice
F
We're broken down lovers at the side of the road
We're broken down lovers in the city of oil
Dm
There's nothing going wrong in your empty home
There's nothing going wrong and we'll leave it alone
Bb
Let's slip under the covers just to save our lives
C
And our heartbeats stop as we plunge through the ice
Bb C
Triple up your socks to dodge the frostbite
F Dm
Cutting through Barnes' Yard hip deep in the night
Bb C
Rough and tumble lovers underneath the covers tonight
F Dm
I was holding onto you and you were holding me tight
Bb C
Nothing's going wrong and nothing's ever going
F
Oh let's lie down for another night
Dm
I'll hold you close under these skies
F
Your brother's in the basement doing hot knives
Dm
Your brother's in the basement doing hot knives
Bb
We struggle to tear ourselves apart in the night
C
And there's nothing going wrong in the city tonight
Dm - Bb
F C
Nothing's going wrong and there's nothing ever holding us down
Dm - Bb
Oooooh ohh oh
F C
Nothing's going wrong and no one's ever holding us down
Dm Bb
Your parents, they say there's beautiful things in this old place
F C
Your parents. they say there's beautiful things in this cold place
Dm Bb
Now your parents say there's nothing for us in this old place
F C
Don't leave me to stay and dream of how you're growing
F
Oh let's lie down for another night
Dm
I'll hold you close under these skies
F
Your brother's in the basement doing hot knives
Dm
Your brother's in the basement doing hot knives

I'll hold you close under these skies
Dm
Your brother's in the basement doing hot knives
Your brother's in the basement doing hot knives

We struggle to tear ourselves apart in the night
We struggle to tear ourselves apart in the light

Your mother's in the kitchen batting her eyelash
