[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Am D Am
On Pukaskwa River so early this morning,
Am D Am
While mending my tumpline I hear the geese calling;
C Am
Over the brule a long clamoring cry,
C G Am
Flying formation against the grey sky - comes the wild goose.
[Chorus]
C G Am
The wild goose; High over North Shore, and I'm going home.
[Verse 2]
Am D Am
The river is open but the lake's frozen over,
Am D Am
It's time to pack up when it's late in October;
C Am
Winter is coming, the wild geese know,
C G Am
We've had a dull fall and it's time for to go with the wild goose.
[Chorus]
C G Am
The wild goose; High over North Shore, and I'm going home.
[Verse 3]
Am D Am
Well I made lots of money, got money to burn,
Am D Am
And when I have spent it I know I'll return;
C Am
After the freeze-up, when snow it is dry,
C G Am
For a work in the tall woods, but I wish that I were a wild goose.
[Chorus]
C G Am
A wild goose; High over North Shore, and I'm going home.
[Verse 4]
Am D Am
I've worked in the bush and spent money in town,
Am D Am
I'd like to get married but I can't settle down;
C Am
At the last portage, when I'll pack no more,
C G Am
Let me fly with the wild goose high over North Shore with the wild goose.
[Chorus]
C G Am
The wild goose; High over North Shore, and I'm going home.
