For my mom and dad. (And thanks for the authentic loon sounds Mike. Don't know how you do it man....)
lyrics
INNER MINNESOTA MAN
Fmaj7 – C - G – F -G
I’m hatching a plan
In fifty some years to feed my inner Minnesota man
Fmaj7 – C - G – F –G
He needs to hear the gooning of the loons
See yellow perch finning in water that glimmers in the morning moon
Fmaj7 – C - G – F -G
To go bowling,
eat thousand island dressing and go back for seconds a second time
A# G
To hunt and fish and shit ...cook stuff over a pit
G#
In the trees....Over rocks
G F G
The bottle opener is screwed on the tackle box
Fmaj7 – C - G – F -G
I’m hatching a plan
In sixty some years to meet my inner Minnesota man
Fmaj7 – C - G – F -G
Take an eight hour day at the joke-apus
Buy all the Twin tone records
I can get my fingers on
F G
You can tell from the chords, just how much, fun it was…
C7 –G jam
Fmaj7 – C - G – F -G
I’m hatching a plan
In Seventy years to see my inner Minnesota man
Put me on the bridges high over Duluth
A view of Gitche Gumi, bluer than the sky, bigger than the truth
F G
And when I start to stumble and fall Take me down to the Zumbro
F A#
Where my father was Where my mother was
G
When the wind hit them hard and shook all the leaves from their trees
F G
On the way back that last time I saw a wondrland
F G
Diving down the Missisipi
Fmaj7 C G F
Every branch, covered in ice It was beautiful, it was really nice
