Am C Dm F Am C G
Am C
Been snowin all day when I got home
Dm F
The fire was out the cabin was cold
Am C G
And I poured some stale coffee from the pot
Am C
The longer I waited the snow got higher
Dm F
Had to split some wood and build a fire
Am C G
If she told me she’d be gone I forgot
Am C Dm F Am C G
Am C
I’d seen it snow that hard before
Dm F
I couldn’t see the cabin from the stable door
Am C G
And that mare she always rode was in the stall
Am C
The law couldn’t come till the weather broke
Dm F
My heart was poundin in my throat
Am C G
And I searched and called her name till it was raw
Am C Dm F Am C G x2
Am C
I never should have brought her here
Dm F
Livin’s hard this time of year
Am C G
Tryin to keep food and fire till winters done
Am C
Sometimes she'd gaze across the plains
Dm F
With a look that I couldn’t name
Am C G
And I’d wonder if she'd stay till springtime comes
Am C Dm F Am C G (x2)
Am C
I found her on the first warm day
Dm F
The rain had washed the snow away
Am C G
Gone for wood and lost her way back home
Am C
And I ain’t the kind believes in ghosts
Dm F
But some nights I get pretty close
Am C G
When the North Dakota winter moans
Am C G
When the North Dakota winter moans
Am C Dm F Am C G
