Easier key for us girls to sing in.
Am
I have returned to the northern skies
Am
where the summer had not touched
Am
The clouds that pass above
Dm
Oh, and i have returned to the sombre grace
G F G
Of the days too early to come and too early to stay
D
And I have left a million stars
G
And an ocean so lightly, so clearly blue
D
And i have left the warmth of the sun
G F G
And a million adventures not yet begun
C B Am
The great sense of passing through
Am
The great sense of passing through
Dm Gsus2 C B Am
The great sense of passing through
Am
Oh, for once there was beauty here for me
D
Under these white northern skies
Dm
And i felt the green was blacker
Dm
And the blue was darker still
G
My roots are lying deeper than i ever think they will again
D G F G G
Heartache and poesy, under these northern skies
C Bm Am
The great sense of passing through
Am
The great sense of passing through
Dm G C Bm Am
The great sense of passing through
Outro: Am D Dm G C
