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

Intro: D  A  G  D  A

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


Chorus:

I'm Alberta bound 
E              B
This piece of heaven that I've found 
A                B
Rocky Mountains and black fertile ground 
E             B                A
Everything I need beneath that big blue sky 
        C#m            B
Doesn't matter where I go 
                A             B
This place will always be my home 
          C#m           B                A
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 


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


CHORUS


Break: D  A  G  D  A  E

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