[VERSE 1]
C Bb F
Train death paintings, anti-meth murals, color the ghettos of North Dakota
C Bb F
Bismark tractors, associations, coffee and toothpaste, this was vacation
C Bb F
I saw while squinting, the hidden layers in those lost-era grain elevators
C Bb F
Feudal beginnings, amber-wave looseness, Post-Nordic grinning, tired and toothless
C - Bb - F -

[VERSE 2]
C Bb F
Cigarette ad - vertisment country, wild and perfect but lacking something
C Bb F
In Manitoba, they call it boring, at night we hum to Canada snoring
C Bb F
Westbound taken, exiled Texan, from a former Dutch trade encampment
C Bb F
Former slave quarters tucked by the alley, serf population too high to tally
