Intro:  
D-G-C  Em  (4x)  

Verse: 
G 
I heard the wind today 
        G/B              
Telling me to go 
C 
I felt the train depart 
       C/B 
To take me from the coast 
              Am 
I watched my city sleep 
C                          D*              G    C    G 
Like a restless soul with nowhere else to go 


G 
Sorrows go on for years 
          G/B                             
Like the tears in widows eyes 
C 
Lessons all stay the same 
         C/B 
While the days give in to nights 
               Am 
I watched the oceans rise 
C                        D*                G    C    G  
And I asked myself "How can I leave this town?" 

 
           D    G     C   Em 
And I can feel those winds blow, 
 C      G 
So many roads 
         D* 
Of Ontario 
        D*    G   C    Em 
Gotta breathe in real slow 
 C           G 
Where will I go? 
(C)      Em 
God only knows 
 C         G 
So far, so long 
(C)      Em 
God only knows 

Interlude:  G C G   C   Am  C/B  C  C/B  G C G 


Verse: 
G 
It's crowding the empty streets 
      G/B                    
And every champagne glass 
C 
A lingering voice that speaks 
       C/B 
Lest I repeat the past 
            Am       
Looking at empty streets 
C                    D*                G    C   G 
And I wonder if I'll make it out this time 


            Em 
I want you closer now 

In the messages I send 
G 
But I'm watching our candles burn 
         G/B 
Depleting at the ends 
C/B            Am 
I'm looking at everyone 
C                      D*             G    C    G 
Telling me there's no better time to run 


           D*    G     C   Em 
And I can feel those winds blow, 
C         G 
So many roads 
         D* 
Of Ontario 
        D*    G   C    Em 
Gotta breathe in real slow 
 C           G 
Where will I go? 
(C)        Em 
God only knows 
 C         G 
So far, so long 
(C)        Em        
God only knows    


Bridge: 
     C 
If I go 
          B7                    Em  (walk up to G) 
There is one thing you should know 
G                    A7 
This land is not my home 
C                   D*     G  C  G 
I'm leaving for the coast 


           D*    G     C   Em 
And I can feel those winds blow, 
C          G 
So many roads 
         D* 
Of Ontario 
        D*    G   C    Em
