 (E)        
     I have returned, to northern skies,

                              Am                            E
     Where the summer hasn't touched, the clouds that pass above

 (E)
     I have returned, to the somber grace,

                              Am                       E
     Of the days too early to come, and too hurried to stay.
Verse 2:
 (E)
     Oh I have left, a million stars,

                   Am                 E
     And an ocean light, and clearly blue.

 (E)
     And I have left, the warmth of the sun,

                     Am                  E
     And a million adventures, not yet begun.
Chorus 1:
         D              A              E
    For once there was beauty here for me,

               D      A            E
    Under the wide_____, northern skies

         D              A             E
    And once there was magic here for me,

               D      A            E
    Under the wide_____, northern skies.
Verse 3:
 (E)  
     I saw trees as green, and this dark as blue,

                     Am                  E
     Heartbreak and poetry, with deeper roots

 (E)
     Now I know, this is lonely country,

                      Am               E
     And it leads me only, back to the sea.

    Under the wide_____, northern skies,

         D              A             E

    Under the wide_____, northern skies.
