Wrangell Mountain Song

[[C]] - [[D7]] - [[G]] - [[G]/f#] - [[Em]] - [[Em]/d] - [[C]] - [[D7]] - [[G]]
[[G]] Sunday and it's [[D]] rainin' in Alas [[G]] ka,
[[C]] Seven days, [[D7]] I haven't seen the sun [[G]]
Flyin' bush, [[C]] flyin' low [[D]] along the [[G]] shoreline [[G]/f#]
[[Em]] [[Em]/d] Doin' everything I [[D7]] can to make it home [[G]]
I can't wait [[C]] to see the Wrangell Moun [[G]] tains
I can't wait [[C]] to [[D7]] do what I will do [[G]]
[[C]] Honey, did I nev [[D7]] er say how time [[G]] goes [[G]/f#] by so
[[Em]]slowly [[Em]/d] when I [[C]] can't [[C]/b] wait to [[D7]] get back home
to [[G]] you
[[G]] Three years from the war [[D]] and settled [[G]] down now,
I [[C]] did my time [[D7]] served my country well [[G]]
In the free [[C]] dom I defend [[D7]] ed I [[G]] fly be [[G]/f#]neath
The North [[Em]] Star [[Em]/d] and I just [[C]]don't know a [[D7]] better way
to feel [[G]]
I can't wait [[C]] to see the Wrangell Moun [[G]] tains
I can't wait [[C]] to [[D7]] do what I will do [[G]]
[[C]] Honey, did I nev [[D7]] er say how time [[G]] goes [[G]/f#] by so
[[Em]]slowly [[Em]/d] when I [[C]] can't [[C]/b] wait to [[D7]] get back home
to [[G]] you
It's a [[Em]] quiet life out [[C]] here among the [[G]] mountains
In a [[Em]] cabin that was built [[A7]] with these [[D7]]two hands
Mc [[G]] Carthy lies asleep [[D]] beside the [[G]] glacier
It's [[C]] colder now, [[D7]] winters in the air [[G]]
If [[C]] you think their wild [[D7]] it's be [[G]] cause they [[G]/f#] can't
be
bro [[Em]] ken [[Em]/d] it's a strong [[C]] and gentle [[D7]] people livin'
there [[G]]
I can't wait [[C]] to see the Wrangell Moun [[G]] tains
I can't wait [[C]] to [[D7]] do what I will do [[G]]
[[C]] Honey, did I nev [[D7]] er say how time [[G]] goes [[G]/f#] by so
[[Em]]slowly [[Em]/d] when I [[C]] can't [[C]/b] wait to [[D7]] get back home
to
[[G]] you [[G]] - [[C]] - [[D7]] -[[G]] - [[C]] - [[D7]] - [[G]]
[[C]] Honey did I nev [[D7]] er say how times [[G]] goes [[G]/f#] by so
[[Em]] slowly [[Em]/d] When [[C]] I can't [[C]/b] wait to [[D7]] get back
[[D7]] home to you [[G]] - [[D]] - [[G]
