Phish - Alaska

Verse 1 & 2:
C7 
I always had to tell her to relax
        F                              C7
And the cat can slip in doors, through multitudes of cracks
         F9                 C         F9                  C
And it?s funny what they?ll do, cause cracks lead outside too
       D7
When I asked her where she?s goin?
         G
She said far away from you

C7
Stuck here on my own now, diggin? down deep
F                          C7
I don?t understand it, but I ain?t losin? sleep
              F9  C        F9                C
I?m not gonna lay down, or head north out of town
D7        
I don?t know, but I think I?ll go
    G
And try dog mushin? with an Eskimo

Chorus:
    C7
In Alaska, Alaska...I think I?ll try Alaska
F                                G
Somewhere she could wait for me, I?ll catch up just wait and see
C7                        Em7       F
Idaho, Nebraska...I don?t know I?ll ask her
G                                    C7
I think I?ll try...I think I?ll try Alaska

Verse 3 & 4:
C7
I sold my old piano for the rent
F                              C7
I loaded up on bug spray and I found my daddy?s tent
           F9   C           F9    C
Now I?m in high gear, doin? forty-five
D7       
I?m hummin? a tune, I won?t see the moon
     G
Till sometime in July

C7
I guess I could?ve flown or took a train
F                                    C7
But you won?t see a moose, if you?re sittin? on a plane
                F9      C                 F9    C
And now there?s no more road, but I got a light load
           D7
And if she isn?t in Alaska
     G
I?ll stay and pan for gold
Chorus:
    C7
In Alaska, Alaska...I think I?ll try Alaska
F                                G
Somewhere she could wait for me, I?ll catch up just wait and see
C7                        Em7       F
Idaho, Nebraska...I don?t know I?ll ask her
G                                    C7
I think I?ll try...I think I?ll try Alaska

Bridge:
B                              E
Just when I thought I?d end up alone
A                         D                Eb7
Big ol? ?laskan mama come walkin? down the road

C7
Alaska, Alaska...I?ll stay right here in Alaska
F                                G
All settled down and hav?in fun, here in the land of the midnight sun
      C7                                 Em7       F
Is it time to call the pastor?...I don?t know I?ll ask her
G                              
I?ll stay right here...I?ll stay right here     (repeat this part 4x)
