[E] [A]
This old terrain is [D] speeding southbound and [E] her whistle bongs [A] the blues.
Heart's as cold as the ice and snow that [E] fills these worn [A] shoes.
[D] That old smokestack keeps barking back to me and seems [A] to say,
We'll [E] carry you on, oh [A] restless one.
I have [D] marched my way on [A] a husky sleigh to the land of the midnight sun.
And I kissed [D] the squaw [A] at the wiccan wall, though [E] many times I [A] faced the gun.
Brown [D]-nested mole didn't want me to go and I told her I must run
and she [E] gave me the name of the restless [A] one.
That ice rolled into [E] a tavern in that frozen [A] land of fog.
Where I [D] met a beautiful [A] Indian maid, she was known as the [Am] morning star.
[A] [D] Her eyes were bright like the northern lights when they chased the [A] arctic moon
and I knew she [E] was born for the [A] restless one.

As we [D] danced I gently [A] kissed her in [E] the path of the morning [A] sun.
Love was sweet [D] and oh [A] so blissful [E] when the romance had [A] begun.
The [D] restless one had gone and fell in love with the Yukon [A] queen
and [E] she fell in love with [A] the restless one.
Through the door came an angry redskin [E] on his head was a [A] beaded band.
I was [D] court and the wife of an Indian chief who ruled with [A] an iron pan.
[D] With a knife he run but I pulled my gun and I shot him to [A] the floor
and the hunt [E] began for the [A] restless one.
Many [D] days and [A] nights they trailed [E] me out under [A] the northern sky
where the wild bird song was mournful [E] and the timber wolf [A] did cry.
[D] But they tracked me down and I'm frisker bound I've made my final run.
It's [E] the end of the line for [A] the restless one.
It's the end [E] of the line for the [A] restless one.
