[F] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [C] _
There's [F] a faint [Bb] silver hint [C] of [F] the morning, [Bb]
[F] where the [Bb] mountains [C] meet the [F] western sky. _
[Bb] And I know from the glow [C] of the [Gm] dawning sun, [F] there's more [Gm] to all of this [C] than meets the eye.
[Bb] _
[C] [F] Once I was a drifter, _ [Bb] [F] but now a dreamer, [Bb] [F] and it's [Bb] here that my [C] dreams were meant [F] to be.
_ [Bb] So here [F] for a while I [C] missed my dear Prince [F] Edward Isle, [Gm] for a chance [C] on the plains of [F] Calgary.
_ [Bb] So tell all the folks in [C] _ Alberton, [F] I started [Bb] coming home and then [F] in Calgary,
[C] I found [F] a friend [G] and took her for [C] my _ own.
[Bb] And though it isn't [C] right for me [F] to win the [Bb] land that is the [F] sea,
I found a [C] home in [F] Calgary, [Gm] my [C] home away [F] from home.
_ [Eb] _ _ [C] _
[F] There are times [Bb] when I'm [C] [F] almost believing, [Bb] _ [C]
[F] when another [Bb] weary day is [F] at an end. _
[Gm] And as the song rolls along [C] on the [Bb] evening [C] air, [F] I can [Gm] almost swear I taste [C] your salty wind.
[Bb] _
[C] As [F] I fall off [Bb] to [C] sleep [F] with a memory [Bb] _
[C] [F] of your green [Bb] fields [C] in this [F] heart of mine, _
[Bb] a dream [F] can go free [C] among the fields [F] of Calgary, [Gm] till it finds [C] its way home to the [F] _
Maritimes.
So [Bb] tell all the folks in _
[C] Alberton, [F] I started [Bb] coming home and then [F] in Calgary,
[C] I found [F] a friend [G] and took her [C] for my own.
_ [Bb] And though it isn't [C] right for me [F] to win the [Bb] land that is the [F] sea,
I found a [C] home in [F] Calgary, [Gm] my [C] home away [F] from home.
If they [Gm] should ask how [C] I'm doing, [F] I'm doing fine.
If they [Gm] should ask how [C] I happen [F] to stay,
If they [Gm] should ask, say [C] the chance of [F] a lifetime [Dm] [G] stole my _ [Gm] heart [C] away.
So [Bb] tell all the folks in _ [C] Alberton, [F] I started [Bb] coming home and [F] then in Calgary,
