Alberta Bound - Paul Brandt
Album: This Time Around
Written by: Paul Brandt

Intro:         

                      
Sign said 40 miles to Canada 
                     
My truck tore across Montana
                                
Ian Tyson sang a lonesome lullaby 
                       
And so I cranked up the radio 
                         
Cause there's just a little more to go 
                                             
For I cross the border at that Sweet Grass sign 


Chorus:

I'm Alberta bound 
              
This piece of heaven that I've found 
                
Rocky Mountains and black fertile ground 
                             
Everything I need beneath that big blue sky 
                    
Doesn't matter where I go 
                             
This place will always be my home 
                                     
Yeah I've been Alberta bound for all my life 
                           B       E <--(D on chorus 2)
And I'll be Alberta bound until I die 


                                 
It's a pride that's been passed down to me 
                          
Deep as coal mines, wide as farmer's fields 
                                   
Yeah, I've got independence in my veins 
                        
Maybe it's my down-home redneck roots 
                   
Or these dusty 'ol Alberta boots 
                                          
But like a Chinook wind keeps coming back again 


CHORUS


Break:           

                       
It doesn't matter where I go 
                             
This place will always be my home 
                                     
Yeah I've been Alberta bound for all my life 
                                           
And I'll be Alberta bound until I die
