The oak throws its seeds to the sky

Take your coat off when you know
A
To warm your bones in the northern
D Bb D Bb A

D
Drop a feather in the water
G A
What the ocean gives, the sky will take

killing swans with twenty-one guns
G A
just to see them fall to the lake

Sea, sea
(Same as before)
Float your paperboat up the creek
And watch the waves, from it's sways
Killing swans with twenty-one guns
Just to see them fall, to see them break
Drive your car up to the pole
That's as far as you can go
Take your coat off when you know
To warm your bones in the northern
Snow, snow
In the northern snow, the northern snow
In the northern snow, in the northern snow
