VERSE 1::
C majorC    ~   A minorAm
Whispers of the north
C majorC   ~    A minorAm

To that wild and barren land

Whispers of the wind
    ~    A minorAm
Soon I will be there again

Bound with a wild and restless drive
       G+G    C majorC
That pulls me from within

VERSE 3::
     G/BG/B  A minorAm
Whispers of the north
     G/BG/B   C majorC
The river and the shore
        ~   A minorAm
In a land that tested Eskimos
       G/BG/B   C majorC
Ten thousand years before
     ~   A minorAm
Whispers of my heart
    G/BG/B    C majorC
In the tracks of animals
    ~    A minorAm
I will leave my footprints there
     G+G     C majorC
To lie beneath the snow

Whispers of the wind
A minorAm   G/BG/B   C majorC
I will feel it sting
    ~   A minorAm
I will see it rise and fall
C majorC   ~    A minorAm
I will hear it sing
  C majorC    ~   A minorAm
The sound is like a song to me
  C majorC   ~    A minorAm
It takes away the pain
  C majorC   ~   A minorAm
The river is the melody
      G+G   C majorC
And sky is the refrain
