Intro: A B E 

A                            B 
There's a mountain north of Winnipeg 
              E 
buried under ice, 
A                        B 
and as the black clouds roll above 
                         E 
white pines crack like glass 

A                     B 
Walking under those swaying trees, 
                     E 
branches bowed with ice, 
A                B 
I wanted one to fall on me 
                   E 
to pin me in the snow 

             G#m   A     
That silver forest  
         G#m       A 
reminded me of you 
          G#m     
and how I kissed you 
       A                B               E 
and I fell down to the bottom of a well 
  A             B                                                 E

PIANO ARR. FOR GUITAR A B Down a dirt road west of El Paso E behind a burning barn, A B I stumbled on a horse's bones E bleaching in the sand A B But when I reached down to touch the skull E underneath my hand, A B a stream of orange lizards poured out E from the bone-white mouth G#m A That empty mouth G#m A reminded me of you G#m and how I kissed you A B E and I fell down to the bottom of a well
