Verse 1:
[(E)] I have returned, to northern skies,
Where the summer hasn't t[Am]ouched, the clouds that pass a[E]bove
[(E)] I have returned, to the somber grace,
Of the days too early to [Am]come, and too hurried to [E]stay.
Verse 2:
[(E)] Oh I have left, a million stars,
And an ocean l[Am]ight, and clearly b[E]lue.
[(E)] And I have left, the warmth of the sun,
And a million ad[Am]ventures, not yet be[E]gun.
Chorus 1:
For o[D]nce there was b[A]eauty here for [E]me,
Under the w[D]ide____[A]_, northern s[E]kies
And o[D]nce there was m[A]agic here for [E]me,
Under the w[D]ide____[A]_, northern s[E]kies.
Verse 3:
[(E)] I saw trees as green, and this dark as blue,
Heartbreak and p[Am]oetry, with deeper r[E]oots
[(E)] Now I know, this is lonely country,
And it leads me o[Am]nly, back to the [E]sea.
Chorus 2:
For o[D]nce there was b[A]eauty here for [E]me,
Under the w[D]ide____[A]_, northern s[E]kies,
And o[D]nce there was m[A]agic here for [E]me,
Under the w[D]ide____[A]_, northern s[E]kies.

Verse 4:
[(A)] I have re[E]turned, to northern skies,
Where the summer hasn't t[Am]ouched, the clouds that pass a[E]bove
[(E)] I have returned, to the somber grace,
Of the days too early to c[Am]ome, and too hurried to s[E]tay.
Chorus 3:
For o[D]nce there was b[A]eauty here for [E]me,
Under the w[D]ide____[A]_, northern s[E]kies,
And o[D]nce there was m[A]agic here for [E]me,
Under the w[D]ide____[A]_, northern s[E]kies,
And o[D]nce, there was b[A]eauty here for [E]me,
Under the w[D]ide____[A]_, northern s[E]kies,
And o[D]nce there was m[A]agic here for [E]me,
Under the w[D]ide____[A]_, northern[E] skies,
