“ALBERTA” by Doc Watson

[Intro]
G Em G Em
 
[Refrain]
G      Bm        F   D     G    Em  Em/F# G
Alberta let your hair hang low
 
[Verse 1]
  G                   D     G
I saw her first on an april morn'
       G                  Bm        C        D
As she walked through the mist in a field of hay
    G                           C      G
Her hair lit the world with its golden glow
        G            Bm   Am        D     G    Em Em/F# G
And the smile on her face burned my heart away
 
[Chorus]
  G    Bm         F    D    G    Em G Em
Alberta  let your hair hang low
  G              F         D
Alberta let your hair hang low
     C             Bm             D         G    Em
I'll give you more gold than your apron can hold
          G    Bm          F   D      G    Em Em/F# G
If you'll only    let your hair  hang low
 
[Verse 2]
  G                 D          G
I thought my golden time would last
        G        Bm      C        D
But the field of hay was soon cut down
     G                  C       G
In a short few weeks it all was past
        G     Bm   F      D       G       Em Em/F#  G
And my golden girl just a painful song
 
[Chorus]
  G     Bm       F  D     G    Em Em/F#  G
Alberta,  what's on  your mind
  G             F       D
Alberta, what's on your mind
   C           Bm              D           G   Em
My heart is so sad, 'cause you treat me so bad
  G     Bm       F  D      G    Em G Em
Alberta,  what's on   your mind
 
[Outro]
G        Bm       F    D      G    Em G
Alberta, let your hair   hang low
