Minnesota

[G]

[G]Minnesota - I can al[C]most smell the air.
I can feel her hand, and my [Em]feet in the sand
in the l[C]akes under [D]trees back [G]home.

Minnesota - You're the gateway to my soul.
You are in my blood, soil's thicker than mud,
in the land where the waters roll.

[G]You k[D]now I [C]faded a[G]way...in [D]Cali - [C]forn - i - [G]a
I was thinking, I was gonna duck the s[D]now
[G]But what I'd give to [D]go back now,
[G]and see the snow c[D]oming down
[G]on the pines and the [D]parkways way back [Em]ho-e-o-e-o[C]me   [D]

Minnesota - How I miss those sail-on days
I miss the stormy nights and the northern light
in the starry skies back home

I've been a runaway, I've seen my hobo days
I thought I'd shake the hay from my shoes
But how I'd love to smell the sweetness
of the corn and the wheat between us
and see the lakes that glisten in the su-e-u-e-un

Minnesota, well you know I'll make it back
you can count someday I'll be coming your way
with a heart full of hope once more

Minnesota, I almost see the time,
the golden leaves blowing free in the breeze,
a clear blue water's shore

Dit-dit-dit dit-dit I'm coming home
Dit-dit-dit dit-dit I'm coming home
Dit-dit-dit dit-dit
Dit-dit-dit dit-dit Back to my country now yeah

Dit dit dit dit-dit I'm coming home
Dit-dit-dit dit-dit I'm coming home
Dit-dit-dit dit-dit
Dit-dit-dit dit-dit Back to my country now yeah
