Northern Girl - Ver 3

G C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em Why are the rain clouds coming and pouring down on me? C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em And why can't the north wind turn and blow the other way? C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em And where has the sunshine gone? Oh, I can barely see Am7 Am7/G D/F# G This northern rain is falling, and home is calling me C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em Sun in a southern sky is all I need to see C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em Just watching a small bird fly, above the fields and me C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em Walking a dusty road and there's nothing 'round the bend Am7 Am7/G D/F# G Except for golden tones of going home again C G D/F# Going home______ C G D/F# Going home______ C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em Muddy old river flowing 'neath a fallen tree C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em And sunflower garden growing twice as tall as me C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em Sister and father hear me, what I've learned today Am7 Am7/G D/F# G I ain't no northern girl, I've been too long away C G D/F# Going home______ C G D/F# Going home______ C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em And on a starry old summer evening, humming warm and sweet C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em I hit the road believing, I was bound to leave C C/G D/F# G D/F# Em And it took a New England sky to teach me how to say Am7 Am7/G D/F# G Em I ain't no northern girl, I've been too long away Am7 Am7/G D/F# G Em I ain't no northern girl, I've been too long away Am7 Am7/G D/F# G This ain't no northern song and I've been too long away
