North To Alaska
Recorded by Johnny Horton
Written by Mike Phillips 

Intro:
C                                     G7
Way up north (north to Alaska) way up north (north to Alaska)
C                  G7                C
North to Alaska go north the rush is on
                   G7                C
North to Alaska go north the rush is on

                            G7             C
Big Sam left Seattle in the year of ninety-two
     F                                          C
With George Pratt his partner and brother Billy too
     F                                             C
They crossed the Yukon River and found the bonanza gold
                                     G7                  C
Below that old White Mountain just a little southeast of Nome

                                      G7          C
Sam crossed the majestic mountains to valleys far below
   F                                                         C
He talked to his team of huskies as he mushed on through the snow
         F                                                          C
With the northern lights a-running wild in the land of the midnight sun
                                       G7             C
Yes Sam McCord was a mighty man in the year of ninety-one

                               F
Where the river is winding big nuggets they're finding
C                  G7                C
North to Alaska go north the rush is on
                                      G7
Way up north (north to Alaska) way up north (north to Alaska)
C                  G7                C
North to Alaska go north the rush is on
                   G7                C
North to Alaska go north the rush is on

                              G7          C
George turned to Sam with his gold in his hand
     F                                     C
Said Sam you're looking at a lonely lonely man
    F                                        C
I'd trade all the gold that's buried in this land
                                       G7                   C
For one small band of gold to place on sweet little Jenny's hand

                             G7               C
Cause a man needs a woman to love him all the time
  F                                    C
Remember Sam a true love is so hard to find
    F                              C
I'd build for my Jenny a honeymoon home
                                            G7           C
Below that old White Mountain just a little southeast of Nome

                               F
Where the river is winding big nuggets they're finding
C                  G7                C
North to Alaska go north the rush is on
                   G7                C
North to Alaska go north the rush is on

                                      G7
Way up north (north to Alaska) way up north (north to Alaska)
