Capo 3rd Fret

Em7                            D7/F#                C

If you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Em7                                               D7/F#   G
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Em                        C                     G
Remember me to one who lives there.
Em7                 D7/F#              G
She once was a true love of mine.


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.



Nashville Skyline Version -  (with Johnny Cash)

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
For she once was a true love of mine.


See for me that her hairs hanging down,
It curls and falls all down her breast.
See for me that her hairs hanging down,
That's the way I remember her best.

If you go when the snowflakes storm,
When the rivers freeze and summer ends,
Please see for me if she's wearing her coat so warm,
To keep her from the howlin' winds.

If you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Please say hello to one who lives there.
For she was once was a true love of mine.

If you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Remember me to one who lives there.
For she once was a true love of mine.

A true love of mine.
A true love of mine.
True love of mine.
True love of mine.
True love of mine.
A true love of mine. 
She once was a true love of mine.
