Biografia:
The Weather Station is a Canadian folk music band fronted by Tamara Lindeman, formed in 2006.
It is said that the Weather Station was born in a closet. One day, Tamara Lindeman sat down to make music she had never heard. Using her banjo, her voice, a borrowed microphone, and a selection of percussive household items, Tamara taught herself to write, then to record. Slowly she cut together her musical exploration of loss and everything that comes along with it.

[Intro]
G F C
G F C
[Verse 1]
G
There was a time
Dm G F
When you put your hand on the small of my back
C G
I was surprised that you touched me like that
Gm Dm
But there in your hand was a current of life
Dm
I could hardly stand
I stayed still
G
And I didn't mention it
F C G
Or if I did, I made some joke of it
G Gm G
It was strange how I could feel so sane
So plain when you're around
G Dm C G F C
[Verse 2]
G
And unbidden to me
There it rose, the fantasy
Colored rose and easy
Dm
Yeah, I could see it so simple, unsubtle
Impossible, clearly
G
And strange
Far and as close as a mountain range
G
On the horizon driving all day
There I was, so sane
So plain after everything
Gm G C G C
[Verse 3]
Gm
Gas came down
From a buck-twenty
F
The joke was how
C
It broke the economy anyhow
Gm
The dollar was down
F
But my friends opened businesses
C
There were new children
Gm
And again, I didn't get married
F Am Gm
I wasn't close to my family
F
And my dad was raising a child in Nairobi
Gm
She was three now, he told me
[Verse 4]
Gm
Gas stations I laughed in
I noticed fucking everything
The light, the reflections
Gm
Different languages, your expressions
Gm
We would fall down laughing
Gm
Effervescent
Gm
And all over nothing, all over nothing
Just as though
F
It was a joke my whole life through
Em Gm
All of the pain and sorrow I knew
C F
All of the tears that had fallen from my eyes
C
I can't say why
G
We walked in the park
Am
Under the shade
F
I avoided your eyes
C G
I was ashamed of my own mind
C
No SSRIs
G C
My day is dark as your night
Gm F C Gm F C
[Verse 5]
G
Oh, you got
The kindest of eyes
C
I cannot help but notice sometimes
Gm
But you know, as do I
I cannot look twice without falling right
C
Into the sweet and the tender line between
Gm
Something I can and can never be
C Gm
And just then an ambulance
Passed on the street
F C
And you took my arm reflexively
[Refrain]
G
That was the year I was thirty
Gm
That was the year you were thirty-one
C
That was the year that we lost, or we won
G
That was the year I was thirty
Gm
That was the year you were thirty-one
C
That was the year that we lost, or we won
