Short Native Grasses (Prairies of Alberta)

A E A E

You can fail to achieve what you'd always believed

A E A (walk up to D)

You were capable of from the start

D

You can lose all you have on the gambling avenue

(walk down to A)

An' you'll know nothing true of your heart

A E A E

You can see and be seen with those holes in your jeans

A E A

But the prairies won't know what it means

CHORUS:

A

The prairies of Alberta, they ain't never hearda

E

The things that are keepin' you down

And the short native grasses don't care that the ashes

A

Of your dreams match their dry shade of brown

You can follow the call out to olde Montreal

It may feel like you'll never get back

You can do what you want on Boulevard St. Laurent

It may feel like you've slipped through the crack

You can see and be seen with those holes in your jeans

And the prairies won't know what it means

CHORUS

When you fail to remember the gifts of September

And all that's left's a manila, grass rope

And that clean, country wedding that you thought you'd be getting

Seems delayed beyond reasonable hope

You can see and be seen with those holes in your jeans

And the prairies won't know what it means

You can see and be seen

With those holes in your jeans

And the prairies won't know what it means
