Four Strong Winds
Ian Tyson

    
         C           Dm
I think I'll go out to Alberta
          G7                C
Weather's good there in the fall
                                Dm         G7
I got some friends that I could go working for
        C                      Dm
Still I wish you'd change your mind
     G7                 C
If I asked you one more time
          Dm                  F               G7
But we've been through this a hundred times before


            C               Dm
Four strong winds that blow lonely
      G7            C
Seven seas that run high
                            Dm               G7
All those things that don't change come what may
       C                  Dm
If the good times are all gone
         G7               C
Then I'm bound for moving on
          Dm             F              G7
I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way


     C                    Dm                 G7                 C  
If I get there before the snow flies, and if things are looking good
                       Dm                G7
You could meet me if I send you down the fare
       C                Dm
But by then it would be winter
        G7               C
Not too much for you to do
          Dm                  F             G7
And those winds sure can blow cold way out there
