Heart Of The Continent Lyrics - Provincial - John K. Samson

Heart of The Continent -John K Samson Capo 4th Fret 

The north wind sinks the fence around a lot full of debris G C 

near the corner of memorial and me G C 

were resurected brick and drywall lead back into place G C 

theres a terrified reflection on my face G C 

all alone at the gleaming knife display at the army surplus sales E B C 

as the dusk descends and my insipiration fails C B A 

ghost filled discount parkas, sleeping bags G A B D C B A C B A G E 

peer at me from the crumpled dark F# G 

inky bruises punched into the sky by bolts of light G C 

and then leak across the body of tonight G C 

while rain and thunder drop and roll then stop short of a storm G C 

leave the air stuck with this waiting to be born G C 

as I stand before an unresponsicve automatic door E D B C 

just another door that wont open for me anymore C B A 

the exit red gets brighter then blinks off G A B D C B A C B A G E 

presses me into the crumpled dark F# G 

theres a billoard by the highway that says welcome to bievennue E A C 

but no sign to show you when you go away B C B A 

and our demolitions punctuate G A B D C B A C B 

all we mean to seave them leave to late G A B D C B A G E 

so I make my shaky exclamation mark G A B D C B A C B A G E 

with a hand full of F# 

the crumpled dark G
