Northern Plains

D A (4x) D A D A stupid me, I took a morning picture D A D To send to you ten thousand miles away D A D The yolky sun rising on the snowfield Bm D G And I swore I wouldn't think of you today The frozen line takes me across the border A hundred years of horses lead the way Why do stubborn leaves turn forever colder? There's nothing left to cling to anyway G A I know you'll break my heart again D Bm Somewhere on the northern plains G A Tired lovers left alone to lie G A Far beyond the golden grave D Bm An emptiness I can't explain G A Our hearts are always broken in the sky (N.C.) As the northern plains go by D A (2x) Holding on to ghosts gets you nowhere You'll burn, forgetting quietly each day I've never seen so far without an ocean And I've never longed for something more to say I know you'll break my heart again Somewhere on the northern plains Tired lovers left alone to lie Far beyond the golden grave An emptiness I can't explain Our hearts are always broken in the sky G As the northern plains go by G I don't know where the moments go A Or if love can be replaced G And I don't know why the morning snow A Reminds me of your face But I know you'll break my heart again Somewhere on the northern plains Tired lovers left alone to lie Far beyond the golden grave An emptiness I can't explain Our hearts are always broken in the sky As the northern plains go by As the northern plains go by As the northern plains go by End on D
