There is a town in north Ontario,
D A G
With dream comfort memory to spare,
D A G
and in my mind I still need a place to go,
D A G
All my changes were there.
D A G
Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
D A G
Yellow moon on the rise,
D A G
Big birds flying across the sky,
D A G
Throwing shadows on our eyes.
D A G
Leave us, Helpless, helpless, helpless
D A G
Baby can you hear me now?
D A G
The chains are locked and tied across the door,
D A G
Baby, sing with me some how.

Blue, blue windows behind the stars,

Big birds flying across the sky,

Throwing shadows on our eyes.
