Verse 1
D
A
The windows of Halifax
G
were shuttered
D
and closed down.
A
It was almost Christmas Eve,
G
D
A
it was quiet on the town.
Bm
There was snow on the streets,
G
everyone was inside.
D
A
I looked at my tree,
D
and I slowly cried
A
I drove in my car,
G
it was like I was on the moon
D
A
I thought of a warmer place,
G
D
A
in the middle of June
D
A
Sometimes it's so snow,
G
it makes me so mad
D
A
Sometimes, for no reason,
Bm
I just feel kind of sad.
A
D
A
All the windows of Halifax tonight.
D
A
Well, the first window says
G
to the second window,
How come you never open up?
D
An d the second window says,
A
I had my heart broke once,
G
now I just stay closed shut.
D
Well, the first window says,
A
Maybe you could see
G
some kind of counselor
or something.
Maybe a window washer
D
could help you see things
A
D
more clearly.
Because I think you're
A
pretty attractive.
G
But you always have
your shade pulled down,
D
A
D
and the sun can never come in.
A
Well, the second window says,
G
Frig the sun, bye.
D
The girl I love is back in St. Anthony,
A
in a big old house with
G
overgrown weeds.
She's a beautiful window,
D
A
and I can see all the way
D
through her to her soul.
Back in St. Anthony?
A
G
Well, I was imported from St. John's.
Well, the fella that lives here,
D
he studied chemistry
A
at Dalhousie University.
G
D
A
D
Truthfully, he flunked out.
A
But he's still a chemist.
G
Well, actually, he's just a drug dealer,
D
and we got people coming in and
out of the house all night long.
But I never have anybody to talk to,
A
just bottle caps and cigarette butts
G
D
A
D
being flicked my way.
A
Dalhousie University, you say?
G
Well, the fellow that lives here next door,
D
he studied geography and archaeology
A
over in Annie Ganesh and
G
St. Francis Xavier.
D
But he flunked out too.
A
Now the only mountains he sees
G
are paper mountains from
his failed thesis.
D
A
Yeah, he's got some tinfoil trees,
G
a cardboard river,
D
and the ugly, ugly paper mountain he made out
A
D
of that drug dealer's trash outside.
A
Sometimes it's so slow,
G
it makes me so mad.
D
A
Sometimes, for no reason,
Bm
I just feel kind of sad.
A
D
A
Oh, the windows of Halifax tonight.
D
A
Well, the windows of the Maritimes,
G
Gm
D
they're all telling stories
of the plentiful days
A
G
of the cod and the glory
A
Bm
Or an explosion that rotted
G
A French cargo ship
D
A
In Dartmouth near the harbor
D
All the windows got clipped
Well all these windows
A
G
D
They're all telling stories
Some are so sweet
A
G
D
Some are so gory
A
Bm
There was a murder one night
G
No one ever speaks of
A
D
A
All the windows of Halifax
Tonight
