[C] [G] [F] [C] [C] [G] [F] [G]

I've been [C]thinkin' since this [G]morning,
When I [F]saw the sun come [C]up,
'bout good times I [G]remember,
And the [Dm/F]girl I used to [G]love,
Now there's [C]no use running [G]from the past,
and [F]leaving it be[E]hind,
I [C]know it's still a [G]long way back,
but it's [F]always on my [C]mind.


Ref:
North[C]wind please take me [G]home
You know that [F]I've been gone so [C]long
and I [F]long to see her [G]eyes and touch her [C]hair,
And if she's [F]there when I'm as[G]hore
You know I [C]won't leave [Em]her no [Am]more
North[Dm]wind please take me [G]home
She's waiting [C]there


[C] [G] [F] [C] [C] [G] [F] [G]

This steamboat keeps on rolling,
and my spirits are way down,
It makes you feel so helpless,
When your feet are off the ground,
You can't drown all your sorrows,
'cause they'll follow where you go,
But if you're man enough to face 'em,
They won't matter much no more.

[Dm] [G] [C] [G]

And if I die before
I get to see my home again,
and never get to tell my lady,
Just how wrong I've been,
I hope my loved ones lay me down,
beneath some shady tree,
and for my epitaph,
I'd like my final words to be..
