INTRO: C G F G C
                               G
There's a bad storm moving in across the prairie sky

    F                             G                    C
The clouds roll like thunder, the lightning splits the night

                                G
I'm alone with your memory, the darkness and the pain

    Am                                 F                C
The trees are trembling in the wind, I hear the falling rain

                             G
And oh, sweet Maggie Lee, do you remember me?

  F                              G              C
I used to be your sweetheart out by the rolling sea

                                          G
I came here to this prairie town when the stakes were running high

        Am                                          F               C
Now the boom's gone bust, the works played out, the money's running dry
CHORUS:
Am                                F             C
Every day I walk the banks of the ice-fed river Bow

    Am                                   C                 G
And watch the river running east, that's where I'd like to go

     F                                 C               F
I've seen the streets of Calgary, I've known a prairie sky

     Am              F               G                 Am
I've made and lost a fortune since I left and made you cry

    G            C
And now I wonder why
INSTRUMENTAL: F C F Am F G Am G C
                                      G
And you said I should have stayed, we might have settled down

        F                                    G                 C
But the western plains they called to me and took me from your town

                                     G
There's not a thing that I can do to stop this falling rain

       Am                          F              C
But if ever I can find a way, I'll hold you once again
CHORUS:
Am                                F             C
Every day I walk the banks of the ice-fed river Bow

  Am                                   C                 G
I watch the river running east, that's where I'd like to go

     F                                 C               F
I've seen the streets of Calgary, I've known a prairie sky

     Am              F               G                 Am
I've made and lost a fortune since I left and made you cry

    G            C
And now I wonder why
CHORUS:
Am                                F             C
Every day I walk the banks of the ice-fed river Bow

  Am                                   C                 G
I watch the river running east, that's where I'd like to go

     F                                 C               F
I've seen the streets of Calgary, I've known a prairie sky

     Am              F               G                 Am
I've made and lost a fortune since I left and said goodbye

    G            C     F G C-G-C
And now I wonder why
