Alberta Bound Tab

Oh the prairie lights are burning bright, the chinook wind is a-moving in
                                     
Tomorrow night I'll be alberta bound
                                                     
And though I've done the best I could, my old luck ain't bin so good
                                     
Tomorrow night I'll be Alberta bound
                                                   
No one I've met could e're forget, the Rocky Mountain sunset
                                        
It's a pleasure just to be Alberta bound
                                                   
And I long to see my next of kin, to know what kind of shape they're in
                                     
Tomorrow night I'll be Alberta bound


CHORUS:

                       
 Alberta bound,  Alberta bound
                                
 It's good to be,   Alberta bound
                        
 Alberta bound,  Alberta bound
                                 
 It's good to be,   Alberta bound


                                                  
Oh the sky-line of Toronto, is something you'll get onto
                                                    
But they say you've got to live there for a while
                                                
And if you've got the money, you can get yourself a honey
                                             
With a written guaran-tee to make you smile
                                                       
Oh It's snowing in the city and the streets are brown and gritty
                                               
But I know there's pretty girls all over town
                                                  
But they never seem to find me, and the one I left be-hind me
                                          
Is the reason that I'll be Alberta bound


Well that's it, hope you enjoy! :)
