The Cowboy Junkies é uma banda canadense de rock alternativo, com ênfase folk e country, formada em 1985 em Toronto, Canada, pelos irmãos Michael (guitarra), Peter (bateria) e Margo Timmins (vocal), além de Alan Anton (baixo).
O primeiro álbum da banda, Whites Off Earth, com uma forte inspiração blues, foi gravado na garagem dos Timmins e produzido pelo produtor canadense Peter Moore. Seu lançamendo se deu em 1986, o mesmo ano em que a banda saiu em turnê pelo sul dos Estados Unidos.

Introduction on Verse
If [G] you were the [Em] woman and [C] I was the [D] man Would I [G] send you yellow [Em] roses, Would I [C] dare to kiss your [D7] hand? In the [Em] morning would I ca[Am]ress you As the [C] wind caresses the [D7] sand, If [C] you were the [Am] woman and [D] I was the [G] man?
If [G] I was the [Em] heart and [C] you were the [D] head Would you [G] think me very [Em] foolish If one [C] day I decided to [D7] shed These [Em] walls that sur[Am]round me Just to [C] see where these feelings [D7] led, If [C] I was the [Am] heart and [D] you were the [G] head?
[Am7] [Bm] [Cm] [Bm] [Am7] [Bm] [Am] [G]
If [G] I was the [Em] woman and [C] you were the [D] man Would I [G] laugh if you [Em] came to me With your [C] heart in your [D7] hand And said, I [Em] offer you this [Am] freely And will [C] give you all that I [D7] can Because [C] you are the [Am] woman And [D] I am the [G] man?
