Winnipeg ======== by: The Tom Russell Band written by: Tom Russell - Frontera Music
C How's the weather in Winnipeg? C The broke down nags with the bandaged legs CDm At Assinaboa Downs Dm The night we painted the town DmC A dark, dark blue C Stolen thunder in Thunder Bay C Woke up knowin' that we came the wrong way CDm So we turned it all around Dm To the cold hard sound DmC The turnin' of the gears CDm To the blood hard sound DmC The turnin' of the years
Chorus:
FGCF I was thinkin' of you last night FGCF North of the border and the Northern Lights FGCF One horse town with the Indian name EmAm And all the gentle words, I could never say FGCFCF 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 CDm Named Al Capone Dm His fedora on DmC 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' DmC Of fallin' through the air CDm And never really knowin' how the hell DmC We ended up there
Repeat Chorus
C How's the weather in Winnipeg? C When the ice melts C On the first of May CDm On those desolate streets Dm One old Sikh DmC In a powder blue cab CDm Is there an Indian name DmC For the love and the trouble we've had...?
Repeat Chorus
