Girl From Saskatoon

A                                E          A
I left a little town, a little south of Hudson Bay
                                     B7              E
I couldn't find a thing, to make a rounder want to stay
    A                                                     A
I fought the wind across the barren waste in the crystal dunes
                         E             A
Going for to marry the girl from Saskatoon

[Verse]
                              E                  A
I'm glad, I realized that no one could take her place
                                       B7              E
My heart was beating for her like the winter beat my face
       A                               D               A
But knowing that I'd see her made my spirit bright as June
                                      E            A
I'm freezing but I'm burning for the girl in Saskatoon

[Verse]
                                   E            A
South and West and following the cold December sun
                                        B7              E
I bedded down in the Carragana when my daily trek was done
     A                              D                    A
Then up and pressing onward by the light of the morning moon
                             E            A
A prodigal returning to the girl in Saskatoon

[Verse]
                                 E                   A
Then I found the trail that had packed beneath the snow
                                  B7             E
I made the final miles where the prairie lilies grow
       A                           D              A
The steeple on a church glistened by the prairie moon
                                      E            A
I'm freezing but I'm burning for the girl in Saskatoon

[Verse]
                                     E               A
But my journey was forgotten when I held her in my arms
                                 B7               E
My wanderlust was stifled by possession of her charms
     A                                   D                  A
And kneeling neath the steeple where we couldn't wait till June
                                 E           A
I found eternal spring with the girl in Saskatoon
