Verse 1

G C G

Well, if you’re travelin’ in the north country fair

D G

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

C G

Remember me to one who lives there

D G

For she once was a true love of mine

Verse 2

G C G

Well, if you go when the snowflakes storm

D G

When the rivers freeze and summer ends

C G

Please see if she’s wearing a coat so warm

D G

To keep her from the howling winds

Chorus

C G

Please see for me if her hair hangs long

D G

If it rolls and flows all down her breast

C G

Please see for me if her hair hangs long

D G

That’s the way I remember her best

Verse 3

G C G

I’m a-wonderin’ if she remembers me at all

D G

Many times I’ve often prayed

C G

In the darkness of my night

D G

In the brightness of my day

Chorus

C G

Please see for me if her hair hangs long

D G

If it rolls and flows all down her breast

C G

Please see for me if her hair hangs long

D G

That’s the way I remember her best

Verse 4

So if you’re travelin’ in the north country fair

D G

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

Remember me to one who lives there

D G

For she once was a true love of mine
