Woodsmoke And Oranges by Ian Tamblyn
Woodsmoke And Oranges
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
Em
By woodsmoke and oranges, path of old canoe,
D C
I would course the inland ocean to be back to you.
Em
No matter where I go to, it's always home again
D C
To the rugged northern shore and the days of sun and wind.
[Chorus]
Am Bm
In the land of the silver birch, cry of the loon,
Am C C/B Em
There's something in this country that's a part of me and you.
[Verse 2]
Em
We nosed her in by Pukaskwa, out for fifteen days,
D C
To put paddle and the spirit at the mercy of the waves.
Em
The wanigans were loaded down and a gift left on the shore,
D C
For it's best if we surrender to the rugged northern shore.
[Chorus]
Am Bm
In the land of the silver birch, cry of the loon,
Am C C/B Em
There's something in this country that's a part of me and you.
[Verse 3]
Em
The waves smashed the smoky cliffs of Old Woman Bay,
D C
Where we fought against the backswell and then were on our way.
Em
I could speak to you of spirit - by the vision pits we saw them
D C
Walk the agate beaches of the mighty Gargantua.
[Chorus]
Am Bm
In the land of the silver birch, cry of the loon,
Am C C/B Em
There's something in this country that's a part of me and you.
[Verse 4]
Em
I have turned my back upon these things, tried to deny
D C
The coastline of my dreams, but it turns me by and by.
Em
It tossed the mighty ship around, smashed the lighthouse door,
D C
Sends a shiver up my spine, oh the rugged northern shore.
[Chorus]
Am Bm
In the land of the silver birch, cry of the loon,
Am C C/B Em
There's something in this country that's a part of me and you.
