The North Still Owns My Name

[Intro ] Am F Dm [Verso 1] Am Theres a town at the edge of weather Where the sea keeps secrets cold F Rust on hooks and prayer in windows Dm Stories never fully told Am Streetlights hum like tired ghosts In sideways rain and blue-white dawn F I left with southbound reasons Dm But the north never moved on [Pré-Refrão] Am You can run from the silence But it learns the shape of you F Every mile just pulls me tighter Dm Back to what I always knew [Refrão] Am The north still owns my name F Calls me home when nights get long Dm I hear it in the wind and waves C G/B In every half-forgotten song Am I may sleep under softer skies F But my heart stays where its torn Dm Yeah, the north still owns my name C G/B Am And Vardø waits me home [Verso 2] Am I taste salt in every memory Hear gulls in passing cars F Harbor lights in broken water Dm Midnight sun, then months of dark Am People talk straight, eyes dont lie No room for masks or borrowed pride F You carry storms inside your chest Dm Or you dont survive [Pré-Refrão] Am Down here time moves different Too loud, too fast, too clean F Up north the quiet speaks in weight Dm Says more than anything Ive seen [Refrão] Am The north still owns my name F Calls me home when nights get long Dm I hear it in the wind and waves C G/B In every half-forgotten song Am I may sleep under softer skies F But my heart stays where its torn Dm Yeah, the north still owns my name C G/B Am And Vardø waits me home Instrumental Am F Dm C G/B [Ponte] Am Theres a line inside my blood F Drawn by ice and open sea Dm No matter where I build my life C G/B That line keeps pulling me Am Ive learned to live between two worlds F One warm, one raw, one true Dm But when the compass starts to shake C G/B Am It always points to you [Refrão] Am The north still owns my name F Not the comfort, but the truth Dm It carved me out of wind and stone C G/B And left me nothing to lose Am If Im ever lost for good F If the south forgets my form Dm Just know Ill follow northern lights C G/B Back to Vardø, back to storm Outro Am So if you hear my voice in winter F Low and rough, but still alive Dm N.C. Thats just the north reminding me Am Where I learned to survive Instrumental Am F Dm C G/B Am F Dm C G/B Am F Dm C G/B Am F Dm
