Verse 1

 A Dstupid me, I Atook a morning pDicture

 TDo send to you ten tAhousand miles awDay

 TDhe yolky sun rAising on the sDnowfield

 And I Bmswore I wouldn't tDhink of you todGay

Verse 2

The frozen line takes me across the border

A hundred years of horses lead the way

Why do stubborn leaves turn forever colder?

There's nothing left to cling to anyway

Chorus

 I Gknow you'll break my Aheart again

DSomewhere on the nBmorthern plains

GTired lovers left alone to lAie

GFar beyond the gAolden grave

 An Demptiness I Bmcan't explain

 Our Ghearts are always broken in the skAy

 ACs the northern plains go by

Instrumental

D A

Verse 3

Holding on to ghosts gets you nowhere

You'll burn, forgetting quietly each day

I've never seen so far without an ocean

And I've never longed for something more to say

Chorus

I know you'll break my heart again

Somewhere on the northern plains

Tired lovers left alone to lie

Far beyond the golden grave

An emptiness I can't explain

Our hearts are always broken in the sky

 As the northern plains go Gby

Bridge

 IG don't know where the moments go

 Or if Alove can be replaced

 And GI don't know why the morning snow

 RemAinds me of your face

Chorus

But I know you'll break my heart again

Somewhere on the northern plains

Tired lovers left alone to lie

Far beyond the golden grave

An emptiness I can't explain

Our hearts are always broken in the sky

As the northern plains go by

As the northern plains go by

As the northern plains go by
