Strum
D-DU-UDU
 This spring  made winter an insulting opening offer,  now the passing lane
 is getter harder to negotiate,  thawing out and icing up again.
Past  the Mint, where a circle of provincial flags
 are flagging  in the front yard,
 tired of trying to make us think that it hasn't  always been so hard.
 The sky looks seasick on the boxcar  sway,
 where the Atlantic and Pacific are the very  same far away.
 So the sun  pulls me out a bit and lets me go, and I'm a vacuum  power cord
   in the back of that van full of kids cleaning carpets  for the Lord,
 and I make  a little list of sounds I've found have comforted  us in the past:
 the roar of the rumble strips, and the Mennonite metre  of the flood forecast,
 or how the wind strums on those signs  that say
 the Atlantic and Pacific are the very  same far away.
 X2
 Steer this boat around the snow  plow spray
 while the Atlantic and Pacific are the very  same far away.

This s[Em]pring made winter an insulting opening [Bm]offer, now the passing lane [Am]
is getter harder to negotiate[Em], thawing out and icing up again.
[Em]Past the Mint, where a circle of provincial flags
are f[Bm]lagging in the front yard,  [Am]
tired of trying to make us think that it [Em]hasn't always been so hard.

[D]  The sky looks seasick on the [G]boxcar s[C]way,
where the Atlantic and Pacific are the [D]very same far away.[Em]

So the [Em]sun pulls me out a bit and lets me go, and I'm a [Bm]vacuum power cord
 [Am] in the back of that van full of kids cleaning [Em]carpets for the Lord,
and I [Em]make a little list of sounds I've found have [Bm]comforted us in the past[Am]:
the roar of the rumble strips, and the Mennonite [Em]metre of the flood forecast,

[D]  or how the wind strums on those [G]signs that [C]say
the Atlantic and Pacific are the [D]very same far away.

[Em] [Bm] [Am] [Em] X2

[D]  Steer this boat around the [G]snow plow [C]spray
while the Atlantic and Pacific are the [D]very same far away.
