If you're travelin' in the north country fair

G

Bm

C

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

G

Bm

C

G

Remember me to one who lives there

G

Bm

C

G

She once was a true love of mine

Johnny:

See for me that her hair's hangin' down It curls and falls all down her breast See for me that her hair's hangin' down That's the way I remember her best

Bob:

If you go where the snowflakes fall When the river's freeze and summer ends Please see for me if she's wearing a coat so warm To keep her from the howlin' wins

Bob and Johnny:

If you're travelin' in the north country fair Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline Please say hello one who lives there For she once was a true love of mine

Instrumental verse

Bob and Johnny:

If you're travelin' in the north country fair Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline Remember me one who lives there For she once was a true love of mine A true love of mine

"Is it rollin', Bob?"

E

A

To be alone with you, just you and me

E

B

Now won't you tell me true, ain't that the way it oughta be?

E

A

To hold each other tight the whole night through

E

B

E

Everything is always right, when I'm alone with you To be alone with you at the close of the day With only you in view, while evening slips away It only goes to show that while life's pleasures be few The only one I know is when I'm alone with you

A

They say that nighttime is the right time

E

To be with the one you love

F#

Too many thoughts get in the way in the day

B

But you're always what I'm thinkin' of I wish the night was here, bringin' me all of your charms When only you are near, to hold me in your arms I'll always thank the Lord when my working day is through I get my sweet reward, to be alone with you

To be alone with you, just you and I Under the moon, 'neath the star-spangled sky I know you're alive, and I am too My one desire is to be alone with you To be alone with you, even for just an hour In a castle high, in an ivory tower Some people don't get it, they just don't have a clue They wouldn't know what it's like to be alone with you They say the night time is the right time To hold each other tight All our worldly cares will disappear And everything will come out right I wish the night was here, make me scream and shout I'd fall into your arms, I'd let it all hang out I'll hound you to death, that's just what I'll do I won't sleep a wink, till I'm alone with you I'm collecting my thoughts in a pattern Moving from place to place Stepping out into the dark night Stepping out into space What happened to me darlin', what was it you saw? Did I kill somebody? Did I escape the law? Got my heart in my mouth, my eyes are still blue My mortal bliss is to be alone with you My mortal bliss is to be alone with you
