/ A / D - A

There's a / spot far away you / all know well,

A / place that's called the / Lookout Hill,

Where the / rabbits hop and the / wildcats yell.

/ A / E - A

How I / love that place no / one can tell.

/ A / D - A

There are / trout streams there and / moose and deer,

/ A / E

But you / never lay eyes on a / grizzly bear,

/ A / D - A

So / take your pack up - / on your back, and

A / E - A

Head your way up the / Lookout Track.

Intro: One Verse Instrumental

/ A / D - A

There'll / be a time when / I am old, and

/ A / E

My / poor old bones are / stiff and cold,

/ A / D - A

I'll / head to the Lookout with the / setting sun,

/ A / E - A

When I / smell those spruce trees / I'll feel young.

/ A / D - A

When the / lakes are frozen and the / brooks are high, and

/ A / E

You / hear the owl in the / moonlight cry,

/ A / D - A

I'll / head to the Lookout with / spirits high,

/ A / E - A

Good - / bye my friends, it's / there I'll die.
