verse 1: 
            F        C             G 
I'm just an ordinary North Country man 
        F                 C           G 
I had a dream that bid me come here 
           F                   C           G 
Although naïve, I thought that I'd make my way 
                 F                   C       G 
But fair-weather friends is all that I had 


verse 2: 
     F                     C        G 
They took from me all that I had to give 
            F             C        G 
Replenished me with their reason 
          F                C         G 
Don't you talk to me about your sacrifice 
            F         C         G 
Then ask of me if I'm leaving
