Introduction:

A  
When you mention Manitoba,
                     D  
I'll be mindful of the prairies,
                  A                                                                                    E  
To the province where the old Red River flows,
                        A  
It's the land of shining water,
                          D  
where the beaver and the otter,
                  A                                            E7                                 A  
Play to-gether where the Prairie Crocus grows.
* * *Chorus
          D                                         A  
Mani-toba, you're my sunshine,
        D                                      A  
My twilight, and re-pose,
          D                                         A  
Mani-toba, you're my heaven,
     D                            A                                         E7                                 A  
Be-cause it's heaven where the Prairie Crocus grows.
A  
When you mention Manitoba,
                     D  
I'll be mindful of her beauty,
                  A                                                                              E  
In the evening when the sunset fades a-way,
                     A  
And the moon of golden glimmer,
                  D  
on the wheat field seems to shimmer,
                     A                                                    E7                                 A  
And the night bird sings the closing of the day.
* * *Chorus
A                                                                                         D  
When you mention Manitoba, I'll be mindful of the valleys,
                     A                                                                      E  
And the old brown hills calling me a-way,
                          A  
Where the favours of our giver,
                  D  
dwell a-mong the lakes and rivers,
                        A                                         E7                                      A  
From the U.S. line to the shores of Hudson Bay.
* * *Chorus
