1.Girl of the North Country
 GIf you're Bmtravelin' Cin the north country Gfair,
 GWhere the winds hit Bmheavy Con the borderGline,
GRemember Bmme to Cone who lives Gthere.
GShe once Bmwas  Ca true love of Gmine.
Well, if you go when the snowflakes storm,
When the rivers freeze and summer ends,
Please see if she's wearing a coat so warm,
To keep her from the howlin' winds.
Please see for me if her hair hangs long,
If it rolls and flows all down her breast.
Please see for me if her hair hangs long,
That's the way I remember her best.
I'm a-wonderin' if she remembers me at all.
Many times I've often prayed
In the darkness of my night,
In the brightness of my day.
So if you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Remember me to one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.

Now won't you tell me Etrue
Ain't that the way it oughta Bbe?

Ev'rything is always Eright

 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.
They say that Anighttime is the right time
To Ebe with the one you love
Too F#many thoughts get in the way in the day
                 B[n.C.]
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's through
I get my sweet reward
To be alone with you.

While the wind blows high above the tree.
Oh, I miss my darling so, I didn't mean to see her go,
But tonight no light will shine on me.

Oh me, oh my
Love that country pie
I don't need much and that ain't no lie
Ain't runnin' any race
Give to me my country pie
I won't throw it up in anybody's face
Shake me up that old peach tree
Little Jack Horner's got nothin' on me
Oh me, oh my
Love that country pie

I don't Cneed them G/Bany Ammore
'Cause Gtonight I'll be Cstaying here with Gyou.
I should have left this town this morning
But it was more than I could do.
Oh, your love comes on so strong
And I've waited all day long
For tonight when I'll be staying here with you.
CmIs it really any wondGer
CmThe love that a stranger might reGceive.
AbYou cast your spell and I went Cunder,
AmI find it so difficult to Dleave.C  Bm  Am  
I can hear that whistle blowin',
I see that stationmaster, too,
If there's a poor boy on the street,
Then let him have my seat
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
[instrumental break]
Throw my ticket out the window,
Throw my suitcase out there, too,
Throw my troubles out the door,
I don't need them any more
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.

G Bm C G

If you're travelin' in the north country fair,

G Bm C G

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.

Well, if you go when the snowflakes storm,

When the rivers freeze and summer ends,

Please see if she's wearing a coat so warm,

To keep her from the howlin' winds.

Please see for me if her hair hangs long,

If it rolls and flows all down her breast.

Please see for me if her hair hangs long,

That's the way I remember her best.

I'm a-wonderin' if she remembers me at all.

Many times I've often prayed

In the darkness of my night,

In the brightness of my day.

So if you're travelin' in the north country fair,

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,

Remember me to one who lives there.

She once was a true love of mine.

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed

A C#m G Bm A C#m G Bm

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed

E F#m A

Whatever colors you have in your mind

E F#m A

I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine

A C#m G Bm A C#m G Bm

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed

Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile

And you're the best thing that he's ever seen

Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile

I long to reach for you in the night

Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead

One more night, the stars are in sight

F G C

But tonight I'm as lonesome as can be.

F G C

Oh, the moon is shinin' bright,

F G G7

Lighting ev'rything in sight,

C F G C

But tonight no light will shine on me.

Oh, it's shameful and it's sad, I lost the only pal I had,

I just could not be what she wanted me to be.

I will turn my head up high

To that dark and rolling sky,

For tonight no light will shine on me.

G F C Dm

I was so mistaken when I thought that she'd be true,

C Em F G

I had no idea what a woman in love would do!

One more night, I will wait for the light

While the wind blows high above the tree.

Oh, I miss my darling so, I didn't mean to see her go,

But tonight no light will shine on me.

[instrumental break]

One more night, the moon is shinin' bright

And the wind blows high above the tree.

Oh, I miss that woman so,

I didn't mean to see her go,

But tonight no light will shine on me.

8.Tell Me That It Isn't True

D A Em D

I have heard rumors all over town,

D A Em D

They say that you're planning to put me down.

G F#m A

All I would like you to do,

G/B Em D

Is tell me that it isn't true.

They say that you've been seen with some other man,

That he's tall, dark and handsome, and you're holding his hand.

Darlin', I'm a-countin' on you,

Tell me that it isn't true.

G F#m Em D

To know that some other man is holdin' you tight,

F# Bm Em F#m Em

It hurts me all over, it doesn't seem right.

All of those awful things that I have heard,

I don't want to believe them, all I want is your word.

So darlin', you better come through,

Tell me that it isn't true.

[instrumental break]

9.Country Pie

The Bm is usually mixed with a B7 (which means you can pick whichever you want of the two)

A C# D

Just like old Saxophone Joe

F#m Bm

When he's got the hogshead up on his toe

A C# F#7

Oh me, oh my

Bm E A

Love that country pie

Listen to the fiddler play

When he's playin' 'til the break of day

Oh me, oh my

Love that country pie

C#7

Raspberry, strawberry, lemon and lime

What do I care?

Blueberry, apple, cherry, pumpkin and plum

Call me for dinner, honey, I'll be there

Saddle me up my big white goose

Tie me on 'er and turn her loose

Oh me, oh my

Love that country pie

I don't need much and that ain't no lie

Ain't runnin' any race

Give to me my country pie

I won't throw it up in anybody's face

Shake me up that old peach tree

Little Jack Horner's got nothin' on me

Oh me, oh my

Love that country pie

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

10.Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You

G C G

Throw my ticket out the window,

G C G

Throw my suitcase out there, too,

C G/B C

Throw my troubles out the door,

C G/B Am

I don't need them any more

G C G

'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.

I should have left this town this morning

But it was more than I could do.

Oh, your love comes on so strong

And I've waited all day long

For tonight when I'll be staying here with you.

Cm G

Is it really any wonder

Cm G

The love that a stranger might receive.

Ab C

You cast your spell and I went under,

Am D C Bm Am

I find it so difficult to leave.

I can hear that whistle blowin',

I see that stationmaster, too,

If there's a poor boy on the street,

Then let him have my seat

'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.

[instrumental break]

Throw my ticket out the window,

Throw my suitcase out there, too,

Throw my troubles out the door,

I don't need them any more

'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
