Owen Temple - Winnipeg Waltz Chords

Winnipeg Waltz
By Owen Temple
3/27/2010






Bm
Two frozen rivers with ice like boulders
D
Cracking past Portage and Main
Bm
Dark downtown buildings, one glowing tavern
         D
Breaking loose from winter's chains


Chorus:
A                     G           D
Winter wind whistling the outside air
A                         G          D  
Inside it's like we found summer somewhere
   A                      G         D
My car is all rusted from road crew salt
    Bm        A        D       Bm   A   D 
And doing the Winnipeg waltz



Railroads and water, Assiniboine and Red,
The reasons why we're here
The center of the continent, the middle of it all
Hanging out and drinking beer


Chorus 2:
It's too cold to snow now but we don't care
Inside it's like we found summer somewhere
My car is all rusted from road crew salt


I love you more in the frozen winter
I think about you beneath your clothes
lets have one more drink in this crowded tavern
I'll kiss your chilly lips and your frozen nose


Chorus 3:
Winter wind whistlin' the outside air
Inside it's like we found summer somewhere
You won't turn to a pumpkin or a pillar of salt
