CWhen I was a Gchild and I Flived in the Ccity

Somehow I Amknew that Id Glive there one Cday

[Verse]
Well, it took me some Ggrowin and a Ffair bit of Cschoolin
And a little bit of Amtrouble to Fget on the Gmove
And I Cfelt like a loser, but I Fturned out the Cwinner
When I came to AmAlaska, the Gland that I Clove
[Chorus]
GHeres to Alaska, Fheres to the Cpeople
AmHeres to the Am/Gwild and Fheres to the Gfree
CHeres to my life in a Fchosen Ccountry
Heres to GAlaska and Cme
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
I was born in a Gcabin on FLittle Mul Cchatna
Raised in hard Amtimes but I Fhad a good Glife
>From the Cfirst time I flew with my Ffather a Csingin
I knew that I?d Amwind up a Gbush pilots Cwife
We sleep near the Gsound of a Fslow running Criver
Wake up most Ammornings to a Fdrizzling Grain
We Clive every day like the Ffirst or the Clast one
With nothing to Amlose and Gheaven to Cgain
[Chorus]
GHeres to Alaska, Fheres to the Cpeople
AmHeres to the Am/Gwild and Fheres to the Gfree
CHeres to my life in a Fchosen Ccountry
Heres to GAlaska and Cme
[Verse]
AmOh, for a Am/Gfire on a Fcold winters Cnight
Once more to Amgaze at the Fgreat Northern Glights
For Call of the beauty my Fchildren will Csee
Heres to GAlaska and Cme
[Chorus]
GHeres to Alaska, Fheres to the Cpeople
AmHeres to the Am/Gwild and Fheres to the Gfree
CHeres to my life in a Fchosen Ccountry
Heres to GAlaska and Cme
FOh, Cheres to GAlaska and Cme
