[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][F][C][G][C]
[Am]
[G]When

[Verse 1]
[C]I was
[G]a child and I [F]lived in [C]the city
I dreamed of [Am]Alaska [F]so far [G]away
[C]And I dreamed I was fly[Am]ing over
[F]mountains and [G]glaciers
[C]Somehow [Am]I knew that I'd
[G]live there one [C]day

[Verse 2]
[C]
[G]Well it [C]took me some [G]growin'
and a [F]fair bit of schoolin'
[C]And a little bit [Am]of trouble
to [F]get on the [G]move
And I [C]felt like [Am]a loser but I
[F]turned out the [G]winner
When I [C]came to [Am]Alaska the
[G]land that I [C]love

[Verse 3]
[G]Here's to Alaska,
[F]here's to the [C]people
[Am]Here's to the wild and
[F]here's to the [G]free
[C]Here's to my [Am]life
[F]in a chosen coun[G]try
[C]Here's to [G]Alaska and
[C]me.

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][F][C][G][C]
[G]I was [C]born in a cab

[Verse 4]
[G]in on
[F]little [C]Mulchatna
Raised in hard [Am]times but I
[F]had a good [G]life
From the [C]first time [Am]I flew
with my [F]father [G]a singin'
I [C]knew that I'd [Am]wind up
a bush [G]pilot's [C]wife.

[Verse 5]
We [C]sleep near [G]the sound
[F]of a slow running [C]river
And wake up most [Am]mornings
to a [F]drizzling [G]rain
And we [C]live every [Am]day like
[F]the first or the last [G]one
With [C]nothing [Am]to lose and
heav[G]en to [C]gain.

[Verse 6]
[G]Here's to Alaska,
[F]here's to the [C]people
[Am]Here's to the wild and
[F]here's [G]to the free
[C]Here's to my [Am]life in a
[F]chosen coun[G]try
[C]Here's [G]to Alaska and [C]me.

[Verse 7]
[Am]Oh, for a [G]fire on a [F]cold winter's [C]night
[Am]Once more [F]to gaze [D]at the great
northern [G]lights
For [C]all of [Am]the beauty my
[F]children [G]will see
[C]Here's [G]to Alaska and [C]me.

[Verse 8]
[G]Here's to Alaska,
[F]here's to the [C]people
[Am]Here's to the [F]wild and
[D]here's [G]to the free
[C]Here's to my [Am]life in a
[F]chosen coun[G]try
[C]Here's [G]to Alaska and [C]me
[F]Oh, [C]here's [G]to Alaska and [C]me
