ALBERTA BOUND Time: 2/2 Tenor: D Bass: C
1 * * *
Oh the prairie lights are burning bright, the chinook wind is a-moving in
* * 4 *
To-morrow night I'll be alberta bound
57 * * *
And though I've done the best I could, my old luck ain't bin so good
* * 1 *
To-morrow night I'll be Alberta bound
1 * * *
No one I've met could e're forget, the Rocky Mountain sunset
* * 4 *
It's a pleasure just to be Alberta bound
57 * * *
And I long to see my next of kin, to know what kind of shape they're in
* * 1 (*)
To-morrow night I'll be Alberta bound
CHORUS:
1 4 * 1
.. Alberta bound, .. Alberta bound
* 57 * 1 17
.. It's good to be, .. Alberta bound___
* 4 * 1
.. Alberta bound, .. Alberta bound
* 57 * 1 (*)
.. It's good to be, .. Alberta bound
1 * * *
Oh the sky-line of To-ronto, is something you'll get onto
* * * 4
But they say you've got to live there for a while
57 * * *
And if you've got the money, you can get yourself a honey
* * 1 *
With a written guaran-tee to make you smile
1 * * *
Oh It's snowing in the city and the streets are brown and gritty
* * 4 *
But I know there's pretty girls all over town
57 * * *
But they never seem to find me, and the one I left be-hind me
* * 1 *
Is the reason that I'll be Alberta bound
