I saw ^Gice upon the river as the plane came ^Bmin to land I heard ^FJoni Mitchell singin' her poems of ^Cmaj7isolation The ^Gman at immigration said his friends all ^Bmknew the band Bi^Fzarre to come so far to an outstretched hand and ^Cmaj7easy conversation We were ^Gwelcomed through arrivals without the usual ^Bmtransatlantic fuss And ^Fgreeted by the fans who led us to the chilly street ^Cmaj7onto the bus

The ^Cmsnow had hung a^Abround on the ^Ebcorners of the vacant ^Bb/Dlots And ^CmFrance was singing ^Abin the air of ^Ebhi-rise North A^Bb/Dmerica

^AAnd as we made our way into the hotel ^F#mhall The ^Gman behind the desk broke a knowing smile, and ^Dmaj7said "Hello sir, welcome back to Montreal."

A, F#m, G, Dmaj7

We hid a^Emway for the day ^D/F# in our i^Gdentical rooms ^A Like we ^Emusually do - a^D/F#nother new bed, upside ^Gdown in our heads ^A And ^Emafternoon was ^D/F#morning and ^Gnight was after^Anoon Only the ^Emjet-lagged ^D/F# know the way I ^Gsleep tonight ^A
