Chinook Wind
Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans

I was born with the Chinook wind howlin in my ears

That Rocky Mountain gusty shit, it dried me out for years

Way back I think my grandpa had a rope horse by that name

All I know is, God, here comes that old west wind again


There's lotsa kinds of problems and there's lotsa kinds of pain

Some will sweat the blazing sun and some rot in the rain

Here we got the Chinook wind a blowin' every day

It's gonna send the good dirt east and leave a terrible migraine


Let her blow, let her blow

Whisper me things that I don't know

Let her blow, let her blow

Let her blow away illusions like she melts the driftin' snow


There comes a time I stood my ground and said I've had my fill


Of that moisture sucking west wind roarin' in off them hills

Before it flew me crazy I let it carry me away

They told me, Son you ain't the first, that breeze will drive a man insane


Let her blow, let her blow

Whisper me things that I don't know

Let her blow, let her blow

Let her blow away illusions like she melts the winter snow


If you need me you can find me here waitin' on a change

Staring at the distance and askin' what it takes

To make that old Chinook turn back and blow the other way

And maybe if I'm lucky have it blow me home again
