Denver John

Denver John - Alaska and Me guitar tab

(C) - (G) - (C) - (F) - (C) - (G) - (C)

(C) When I was a (G) child and I (F) lived in the (C) city

I dreamed of (Am) Alaska (F) so far (G) away

And I (C) dreamed I was flying over (F) mountains and (C) glaciers

Somehow I (Am) knew that Id (G) live there one (C) day

(C) - (G) - (C) - (F) - (C) -(G) - (C)

Well, it took me some (G) growin and a (F) fair bit of (C) schoolin

And a little bit of (Am) trouble to (F) get on the (G) move

And I (C) felt like a loser, but I (F) turned out the (C) winner

When I came to (Am) Alaska, the (G) land that I (C) love

(G) Heres to Alaska, (F) heres to the (C) people

(Am) Heres to the (Am/g) wild and (F) heres to the (G) free

(C) Heres to my life in a (F) chosen (C) country

Heres to (G) Alaska and (C) me

(C) - (G) - (C) - (F) - (C) - (G) - (C)

I was born in a (G) cabin on (F) Little Mul (C) chatna

Raised in hard (Am) times but I (F) had a good (G) life

>From the (C) first time I flew with my (F) father a (C) singin

I knew that Iíd (Am) wind up a (G) bush pilots (C) wife

We sleep near the (G) sound of a (F) slow running (C) river

Wake up most (Am) mornings to a (F) drizzling (G) rain

We (C) live every day like the (F) first or the (C) last one

With nothing to (Am) lose and (G) heaven to (C) gain

(G) Heres to Alaska, (F) heres to the (C) people

(Am) Heres to the (Am/g) wild and (F) heres to the (G) free

(C) Heres to my life in a (F) chosen (C) country

Heres to (G) Alaska and (C) me

(Am) Oh, for a (Am/g) fire on a (F) cold winters (C) night

Once more to (Am) gaze at the (F) great Northern (G) lights

For (C) all of the beauty my (F) children will (C) see

Heres to (G) Alaska and (C) me

(G) Heres to Alaska, (F) heres to the (C) people

(Am) Heres to the (Am/g) wild and (F) heres to the (G) free

(C) Heres to my life in a (F) chosen (C) country

Heres to (G) Alaska and (C) me

(F) Oh, (C) heres to (G) Alaska and (C) me
