Manitoba chords by Stompin Tom Connors

Verse:
     A
When you mention Manitoba,
    D
I'll be mindful of the prairies,
    A                E
To the province where the old Red River flows,
     A
It's the land of shining water,
     D
where the beaver and the otter,
    A         E7       A
Play to-gether where the Prairie Crocus grows.

Chorus:
  D        A
Mani-toba, you're my sunshine,
  D        A
My twilight, and re-pose,
  D        A
Mani-toba, you're my heaven,
 D      A        E7       A
Be-cause it's heaven where the Prairie Crocus grows.
A

When you mention Manitoba,
    D
I'll be mindful of her beauty,
    A               E
In the evening when the sunset fades a-way,
    A
And the moon of golden glimmer,
    D
on the wheat field seems to shimmer,
    A          E7       A
And the night bird sings the closing of the day.

Chorus: x2
A                 D
When you mention Manitoba, I'll be mindful of the valleys,
    A              E
And the old brown hills calling me a-way,
     A
Where the favours of our giver,
    D
dwell a-mong the lakes and rivers,
     A        E7        A
