Chord/Tab song: Northern Wish

wake up, raise t[C]he curtains[Em]
[F]on your deep provinci[C]al eyes
[F]speak out, for i am cert[C]ain
[F]that it's no disguise
[C]'cause soldiers stoppi[Em]ng traffic
[F]couldn't keep these whee[C]ls at bay
[F]their guns smoked and th[C]e sun broke
[F]and we hauled away

[C]and did you get my messa[Em]ge
[F]on the peoples' radio?[C]
[F]i wrote it in alberta[C]
[F]across the prairie spine
[C]and "i'd rather jump the[Em] border
[F]than trail from east to [C]west."
[F]then get the booking age[C]nt
[F]to find another band

[C]and mothers of the count[Em]ry
[F]take two flags and make [C]a sail
[F]we'll sail the big domin[C]ion
[F]this song is falling...

[D]i built my rocket in a shed
i'm gonna launch it at t[A]he sun
i'm gonna launch it from[D] my pad
[F]oh - could i get this?
[C]it's my [G]northern[C] wish.

[C]meanwhile in the forest[Em]
[F]in a parliament of trees[C]
[F]the ink will crack and d[C]ry all up
[F]but the compass will swing, any-way
[C]and we don't need mathem[Em]atics
[F]we don't need submarines[C]
[F]to tell how far that the[C] land does go
[F]until it hits the shore

[C]and mothers of the count[Em]ry
[F]take two flags and make [C]a sail
[F]we'll sail the big domin[C]ion
[F]this song is falling

[D]i built my rocket in a shed
i'm gonna launch it at t[A]he sun
i'm gonna launch it from[D] my pad
[F]oh - could i get this?
[C]it's my [G]northern[C] wish.

[C]wake up, raise the curta[Em]ins
[F]on your deep provincial [C]eyes
[F]speak out for i am certa[C]in
[F]this song is over[C]
