VERSE:
D
Thunder bay must have been a big mess
G
Night bus to Regina, I`m not at my best
D
Trying to play straight,
A
But I come undone
D
No, I can`t connect, I`m missing the marks
G
Second night of the tour and I`m having second thoughts
D A D
On this road headed west

VERSE:
D
Winnipeg on a Friday night
G
Well, it`s cold to the bone so I`m gonna get high
D A
Starting to remember the words and the reason why
D
Saskatoon is colder yet
G
But I`m finally getting into the set
D A D
I know this is what I do, but sometimes I forget

CHORUS:
G A D
And the opening act was a nice surprise
G D
Couldn`t get her name straight,
G A
Maybe I`m too high
G D
Many a mile to nowhere,
G
Doing the same old thing
D A G G
So I`ll sing my song and see
N.C. D
What tomorrow brings

Edmonton`s a beautiful drive
G
See the northern lights pull over for a while
D A D
Ah, the silence is nice
VERSE:

Then it`s over the mountains to the rainy city

And the Orpheum is oh so pretty

Always a party in Vancouver town

VERSE:
D
Victoria airport on three hours sleep
G
I`m standing in line asleep on my feet
D A
And I bounce in my seat all the way to YVR
D
When I get home I should be tired
G
But my body`s burnt, my brain is wired
D A D
And I sing this song all night long
