Biografía:
The Rankin Family is a Canadian folk music family group from Mabou, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia.
The Rankins come from a family of 12, all of whom would entertain the neighbours musically every third weekend as part of a ceilidh.
Five of the siblings began performing professionally in 1989. The Rankins released their own independent cassettes The Rankin Family (1989) and Fare Thee Well Love (1990) featuring original songs and a combination of traditional jigs, reels and Celtic folk songs.

North Country Rankin Family
[Capo- fret 5]

[Am]But don't ask when [Em]I'll be back a[F]gain - [C]-[G]

Just to stay [G]alive. - [C,G]
Chorus 2: [F]Rustle the leaves on the [C]ground

No, it can't be[G] found

[G]You may find me on the rocky shore
[F]Of that [C]lonely [G]Isle. - [C,G]
