Chris Knight – North Dakota (Ukulele)

North Dakota - A Pretty Good Guy - Chris Knight 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
So I split some wood and built a fire

          Am                     C           G
If she told me she’d be gone I forgot

I’d seen it snow that hard before I couldn’t see the cabin from the stable door And that mare she always rode was in the stall The law couldn’t come till the weather broke My heart was poundin in my throat And I searched and called her name till it was raw I never should have brought her here Livin’s rough this time of year Tryin to keep food and fire till winters done Sometimes she gazed across the plains With a look that I couldn’t name And I’d wonder if she stay till springtime comes I found her on the first warm day The rain had washed the snow away Went for wood and lost her way back home And I ain’t the kind believes in ghosts But some nights I get pretty close When the North Dakota winter moans When the North Dakota winter moans
