VERSE:
G
I'm heading back to the North Country
     F     C   G
With the cold wind in my eyes
G
I'll be there by sunset
F     C      G    F C
Before the first snow flies--


CHORUS:
F         C
Rustle the leaves on the ground
C         G       F C
This crazy feelin' hangin' round--
F       C
I’ll remember now and then
Am         Em   C   F   C
But don't ask when I'll be back again-----

VERSE:
G
Had this dream late one night
   F        C      G
'Bout working with the gang at the Mull River drive
G
Danny, me and Freddy Wright
    F     C        G    F C
Making a dollar a day Just to stay alive--


CHORUS:
F         C
Rustle the leaves on the ground
C       G      F C
Cold hard rain comin’ down--
F           C
Sleeping there on the dark damp earth
Am           Em   C   F   C
For what it's worth, no reason can be found------
       G     F C
No, it can't be found

Of that lonely Isle-–
