Springtime In Alberta
=====================
by: Ian Tyson
capo 3rd fret
Verse 1:
--------
G (strum once) D
Should've seen it in your eyes
D G
I could never read your eyes'
G D
So lost in love was I
D G
It always takes me by surprise
G C
You were dreamin' of the south land
C
How your love comes and goes
C G
It's just like the weather babe
G Am
Only heaven really knows
Chorus:
-------
Am D
Just like springtime in Alberta
D G
Warm sunny days and the skies of blue
G D
Then without a warning
D G
Another winter storm comes ragin' through
G C
And the mercury's fallin'
C Bm G
I'm left all alone
G Am D
Springtime in Alberta
D G
Chills me to the bone
Verse 2:
--------
G (strum once) D
I can see the storm clouds coming
D G
Lord they're dark across the sky
G D
The same look that I've seen so many times
D G
When I've looked into your eyes
G C
So I'll turn up my old collar
C
Pull my hat way down low
C G
Oh the wind's gettin' colder now
G Am
Droppin' down to near zero
Repeat Chorus:
--------------
Em Am D
Springtime in Alberta
D G D G (strum each chord once to end)
Chills me to the bone
>From the album And Stood There Amazed 1991
