[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Somewhere, On sleepless nights

we're beautiful

I breathe, and winter speaks

through grazin' blues

I fell in, to the light

Across the snow, and out of sight

When the cold road calls

C G

thats where I'll be

[Verse 2]

I'm down, by the greatest lake

Ontario

I'm wasted, and feelin' dead

with the steel mill fires

in my head

Skyway take, me away

I won't kiss your, face today

Em C G

finding out, the hard way

When the cold road calls

thats where I'll be

When the cold road calls

[Instrumental]

C G

[Verse 3]

I left, this world one day

on a tail cold wind

I sing, the greatest note

from heaven

After all, the memories fade

and my colours, all run dry

Em C G

I'm going home, the long way

When the cold road calls

thats where I'll be

When the cold road calls

C G

thats where I'll be
