Biography:
There’s a poignant double meaning behind the new album Love and Leave You by the Edmonton, Alberta based folk duo 100 mile house. As on their award-winning previous work, Peter Stone and Denise MacKay seem naturally attuned to life’s impermanence; the reality that we must cherish what we have, while knowing we must eventually let it go.

[Verse 1]
C
The river thaws below
Am G F
The seas the stars the snow from winter storms
C
but the mark is on the rise
Am G F
soon it will be time to let her go
C Am F
tobaggans pull away reminds me of the days when we'd still hold
C
but the clocks were gaining hours
Am G F C G
and our t shirt suntans proudly start to grow old
[Chorus]
F Am
We'll pick up our boots
C G F Am
run beside the river on those tracks we took
C G
when we'd decide to give her
C Am
and in our hearts we know
C G F
a bar is the place that we'll call home
[Verse 2]
C
our breath would fill the air
Am G F
covered hands prepare to fight the cold
C
the river's where we'd stop
Am G F
the vein that bled the heart of all we know
C
the busted bell was strong
Am G F
fingerless mittins to make accord
C
then ill follow where you to
Am G Am C G
it leads me back to you when I'm alone oh
[Chorus 2]
F Am
We'll pick up our boots
C G F Am
run beside the river on those tracks we took
C G
when we'd decide to give her
C Am
and in our hearts we know
C G F
a bar is the place that we'll call home
Am G F
a bar is the place that we'll call home
Am G
a bar is the place
