C5            G5           F5            C5
When I was a child and I lived in the city 
             A5     F5      G5
I dreamed of Alaska so far away 
      C5                         F5             C5
And I dreamed I was flying over mountains and glaciers 
          A5           G5              C5
Somehow I knew that Id live there one day 
C5 - G5 - C5 - F5 - C5 - G5 - C5 

                      G5            F5           C5
Well, it took me some growin and a fair bit of schoolin 
                    A5         F5          G5
And a little bit of trouble to get on the move 
      C5                        F5              C5
And I felt like a loser, but I turned out the winner 
               A5          G5           C5
When I came to Alaska, the land that I love 
G5                F5            C5
Heres to Alaska, heres to the people 
A5           A5     F5            G5
Heres to the wild and heres to the free 
C5                     F5      C5
Heres to my life in a chosen country 
         G5          C5
Heres to Alaska and me 
C5 - G5 - C5 - F5 - C5 - G5 - C5 

                G5        F5          C5
I was born in a cabin on Little Mul chatna 
               A5          F5          G5
Raised in hard times but I had a good life 
         C5                         F5        C5
From the first time I flew with my father a singin 
                A5        G5           C5
I knew that I?d wind up a bush pilots wife 
                  G5          F5            C5
We sleep near the sound of a slow running river 
             A5            F5         G5
Wake up most mornings to a drizzling rain 
   C5                       F5            C5
We live every day like the first or the last one 
                A5                   C5
With nothing to lose and G heaven to gain 
G5                F5            C5
Heres to Alaska, heres to the people 
A5           A5     F5            G5
Heres to the wild and heres to the free 
C5                     F5      C5
Heres to my life in a chosen country 
         G5          C5
Heres to Alaska and me 
A5        A5      F5            C5
Oh, for a fire on a cold winters night 
             A5          F5              G5
Once more to gaze at the great Northern lights 
    C5                    F5             C5
For all of the beauty my children will see 
         G5          C5
Heres to Alaska and me 
G5                F5            C5
Heres to Alaska, heres to the people 
A5           A5     F5            G5
Heres to the wild and heres to the free 
C5                     F5      C5
Heres to my life in a chosen country 
         G5          C5
Heres to Alaska and me 
F5   C5        G5          C5
Oh, heres to Alaska and me
