[Intro]

[Verse]
D A
Out on the Mira on warm afternoons
E F#m Bm E
Old men go fishing with black-line and spoons
A D A
And if they catch nothing, they never complain
E A
And I wish I was with them again
[Verse]
D A
Boys on the boats call to girls by the shore
E F#m Bm E
Teasing the ones that they dearly adore
A D A
And into the evening the courting begins
E A
And I wish I was with them again
[Chorus]
D A
Can you imagine a piece of the universe
Bm A
More fit for princes and kings
D C#m B
I'll trade you ten of your cities For Marion Bridge
E
And the pleasure it brings
[Verse]
A D A
Out on the Mira on warm summer nights
E F#m Bm E
Campfires blaze to the children's delight
A D A
They dance round the flames singing songs to their friends
E A
And I wish I was with them again
[Verse]
D A
And into the evening the stories are told
E F#m Bm E
Of witches and werewolves and Oak Island gold
A D A
Stars on the riverbed, sparkle and spin
E A
And I wish I was with them again
[Chorus]
D A
Can you imagine a piece of the universe
Bm A
More fit for princes and kings
D C#m B
I'll trade you ten of your cities For Marion Bridge
E
And the pleasure it brings
[Verse]
A D A
Out on the Mira, the people are kind
E F#m Bm E
They'll treat you to homebrew and help you unwind
A D A
And if you come broken, they'll see that you mend
E A
I wish I was with them again
[Chorus]
D A
Can you imagine a piece of the universe
Bm A
More fit for princes and kings
D C#m B
I'll trade you ten of your cities For Marion Bridge
E
And the pleasure it brings
[Instrumental]
D A E A
[Verse]
D A
I'll leave you now, with a wish you go well
E F#m Bm E
Good health and good fortune, may your happiness swell
A D A
I'll leave you now, for my journey begins
E A
And I'm going to be with them again
[Chorus]
D A
Can you imagine a piece of the universe
Bm A
More fit for princes and kings
D C#m B
I'll trade you ten of your cities For Marion Bridge
E
And the pleasure it brings
[Outro]
