Manitoba chords by Stompin Tom Connors

Chords with lyrics

Verse:
     A augmentedA
When you mention Manitoba,
    D MajorD
I'll be mindful of the prairies,
    A augmentedA                E MajorE
To the province where the old Red River flows,
     A augmentedA
It's the land of shining water,
     D MajorD
where the beaver and the otter,
    A augmentedA         E7E7       A augmentedA
Play to-gether where the Prairie Crocus grows.

Chorus:
  D MajorD        A augmentedA
Mani-toba, you're my sunshine,
  D MajorD        A augmentedA
My twilight, and re-pose,
  D MajorD        A augmentedA
Mani-toba, you're my heaven,
 D MajorD      A augmentedA        E7E7       A augmentedA
Be-cause it's heaven where the Prairie Crocus grows.
A augmentedA
When you mention Manitoba,
    D MajorD
I'll be mindful of her beauty,
    A augmentedA               E MajorE
In the evening when the sunset fades a-way,
    A augmentedA
And the moon of golden glimmer,
    D MajorD
on the wheat field seems to shimmer,
    A augmentedA          E7E7       A augmentedA
And the night bird sings the closing of the day.

Chorus: x2
A augmentedA                 D MajorD
When you mention Manitoba, I'll be mindful of the valleys,
    A augmentedA              E MajorE
And the old brown hills calling me a-way,
     A augmentedA
Where the favours of our giver,
    D MajorD
dwell a-mong the lakes and rivers,
     A augmentedA        E7E7        A augmentedA
