[Intro]
D#m C# B
[Verse]
F#
Here we traced all the tracks and the treads of your teens
Felt the wind on your face as you skated the sheet
B
Here we followed a fox as it danced in high beams
C#
Watched the sun crack the sky behind a snow covered peak
F#
Here you howled at the top of your lungs as we flew
B
Where I held on white-knuckled scared to open my eyes
C#
As you took us all rattin’ for the very first time
[Chorus]
F#
And I understood what you were trying to say
D#m
About life in a northern town and the way
B
It can hold you, haunt you, live in the veins
C#
And you’ll keep coming back when it whispers your name
And I understood what you were trying to say
D#m
About life in a northern town and the way
B
It can hold you, haunt you, live in the veins
C#
And you’ll keep coming back when it whispers your name
[Interlude]
F# A# D#m C# B x2
End on F#
[Verse]
F#
Here you paced the floor like a wild caged beast
Here you looked to the sky and just longed to be free
B
Here you dreamt of a city by the shores of the sea
C#
And you counted the days til you could finally leave
F#
Here stood the ghost of a feeling you knew
That somewhere out “there” were others like you
B
And yeah you escaped but were you ever free
C#
Because all roads lead back to your first memories
D#m
To the sound of fresh snow as it cracked under feet or
C#
the ravens who huddled on lamp posts for heat
B
Or the snow dusted ponies on the side of the road
C#
Searching for the fresh grass though its 40 below
D#m
For the feel of the word you say “family”
C#m
For the stories you write to hold your history
B
For your love letters written to the hurt, to the fear
C#
To the ways you always say just what I need to hear
[Chorus]
F#
And I understood what you were trying to say
D#m
About life in a northern town and the way
B
It can hold you, haunt you, live in the veins
C#
And you’ll keep coming back when it whispers your name
F#
And I understood what you were trying to say
D#m
About life in a northern town and the way
B
It can hold you, haunt you, live in the veins
C#
And you’ll keep coming back when it whispers your name
