Maple Tears Cifras

Intro - Walk up to D    G    D     A     D
 
 
D            G           D
I met a girl from Manitoba
                  Bm  G              A
Where the wind is wild on the Hudson Bay
             D   G         D
She could've been from Oklahoma
              D   A        D
If she didn't live so far away
 
D            G           D
Prairie girl I read your letters 
          Bm  G              A
As I stood by the tracks of the C.P.R. 
       D   G         D
Every word just like a tear drop 
           D   A        D  D7
Every stain, a broken heart
 
 
Chorus:
      G                        D
Maple tears in the letters she sends
             A                 D     D7
Red like the dirt in the Tulsa wind
           G                 D     G
Sweet like cane on the delta bed
        D          A                   D
Oh them maple tears in the letters she sends
 
Solo
D   G   D  Bm  G   A
D   G   D  A   D
 
 
D            G           D
I been inside ten thousand barrooms
        Bm  G              A
From Winnipeg on down to New Orleans
             D   G         D
I seen the arms of that big old river
              D   A        D  D7
Stretching far out to the sea
 
 
Chorus:
      G                        D
Maple tears in the letters she sends
             A                 D     D7
Red like the dirt in the Tulsa wind
           G                 D     G
Sweet like cane on the delta bed
        D          A                   D       G
Oh them maple tears in the letters she sends
        D          A                   D
Oh them maple tears in the letters she sends
 
D            G           D
I met a girl from Manitoba
