capo 1
heading north across the border
to a land that feels like home
to a place a man can step outside and breathe
fill my lungs with all the songs
nature’s singin’ out to me
where there’s room to spread my arms and sing along
D
there’s a light between the branches in a stand of aspen trees
G D A
that lift the stream up to the very sky
D G
it whispers with a voice colored blue and white and gold
D G A D
of peace for every soul that passes by
G D
sky so wide I cannot see it all
G D A
trees of every color as far as eyes can see
G D
listen to the rivers as they call
D
come lie in my arms; find the peace
G A D
that means so much to me
there’s a voice across the prairie that’s calling out for me
to find my way out to another land
and it leads me to a place peace can come to me
with the comfort of a warm and gentle hand
chorus
heading north across the border to a land that feels like home
to a place a man can step outside and breathe
fill my lungs with all the songs nature’s singin’ out to me
where there’s room to spread my arms and sing along
