We'll weigh up in Alaska, [A] the state that stands alone.
[B] There's a dog race run from [E] Akwajin to Nome. _
And it's a grueling race with a lightning [A] pace, where the chilly winds do well.
[B] Beneath the northern lights, cross snow and the ice, and it's called the [E] Iditarod Trail.
[Bm] _ [A] We'll give me a team and a good lead dog and a sled that's built so fine, [E] and let me race
those miles to Nome 1049.
[B] Then when I get back to my home, hey, I can tell my tale.
I did, I did, I did, the [E] Iditarod Trail.
_ _ _ _ _ Well the race, it won't be easy [A] for the masters of the trail.
[B] And some of them will make it, and some of them [E] will fail.
But just to run that race takes [A] a tough and a hearty breed.
[B] And a lot of work done by the dogs that run across snow with a [E] whistling speed. _
[A] We'll give me a team and a good lead dog and a sled that's built so fine, [E] and let me race
those miles to Nome _ 1049.
[B] Then when I get back to my home, hey, I can tell my tale.
I did, I did, I did, [E] the Iditarod Trail. _ _ _

_ We'll just pull out of safety, [A] I'm on the trail all alone.
[B] I'm doing fine and I'm picking up time and I'm running on [E] in the Nome.
There are no sled tracks in front of me [A] and no one on my tail.
[B] I did, I did, I did, the [E] Iditarod Trail.
