Biography:
Toronto-based trio The Rural Alberta Advantage (Nils Edenloff, Amy Cole, and Paul Banwatt) play indie-rock songs about hometowns and heartbreak, born out of images from growing up in Central and Northern Alberta. They sing about summers in the Rockies and winters on the farm, ice breakups in the spring time and the oil boom’s charm, the mine workers on compressed, the equally depressed, the city’s slow growth and the country’s wild rose, but mostly the songs just try to embrace the advantage of growing up in Alberta.

Capo 2nd Fret
[Verse 1]
G Am Em
You're right I said there’s nothing left
C G
Not long ago
Am Em
I whispered in the night
C Am
You whispered back of course
C
Started racing out of touch
G
Not long ago
Am Em
C
[Verse 2]
G Am Em
Last night, sitting in the dark
C G
I was being difficult
Am Em
There’s a weight in my heart
C Am
That was atypical
C
Tonight we're racin' out of touch
Are we gettin' wise
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
Head long into the night
G Am C G
I was all alone and I was contemplating letting you know
Am Em
But tonight we’re speaking code
Em C
Head high into the wild
G Am C G
Contemplating loss and the consequence of getting old
Am Em
But for now we’re speaking code
[Chorus]
C
When the roof comes down on us
C G
I know you’re gonna be the last one around I trust
C
All the late night knocks on us
C G
I hope we’re gonna be the last one that they judge
Am Em
I hope
C G
I know
Am Em
I hope
C
[Verse 3]
G Am Em
The shot heard deadly in the night
G
We were being civilized
Am Em
I’m losing my touch
Am
And nothin' being rectified
C
So we’re wasting our love
While we’re getting wise
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
Head long into the night
G Am C G
I was all alone and I was contemplating letting you know
Am Em
But tonight we’re speaking code
Em C
Head high into the wild
G Am C G
Contemplating loss and the consequence of getting old
Am Em
But for now we’re speaking code
[Chorus]
C
When the roof comes down on us
Em
I know we're gonna be alright
Am
All the late night knocks on us
G
i Hope we're gonna be alright
C
There’s a shaky thought in us
Em
I’ll save it for another night
Am
And the roof comes down on us
I know we’re gonna be alright
C G
I know
Am Em
I hope
C G
I know
