[Intro]
C, F (x4)
[Verse 1]
A Cstupid me, I Ftook a morning pCicture
(C) F C
To send to you ten thousand miles away
(C) F C
The yolky sun rising on the snowfield
And I Amswore I wouldn't tChink of you todFay
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
I Fknow you'll break my Fheart again
CSomewhere on the nAmorthern plains
FTired lovers left alone to lFie
FFar beyond the gFolden grave
An Cemptiness I Amcan't explain
Our Fhearts are always broken in the skFy
(N.C.)
As the northern plains go by
[Instrumental]
C, F (x2)
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
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 Fby
[Bridge]
(F)
I don't know where the moments go
Or if Flove can be replaced
And FI don't know why the morning snow
RemFinds me of your face
[Chorus]
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]
