Fantastic song by a good Alberta boy. After the 2009 Grey Cup, the flat

province

needs something to smile about!

The song is played capo 3, and the chords are written relative to the capo

(i.e.

the song is actually in G)
E
Well I'm long gone to Saskatchewan
F#
Long gone to Saskatchewan
A
Where the gettin's good if you're gettin' gone
B7
I'm gonna put my boots and my hat back on.
A E
Cause I'm long gone to Saskatchewan
A E
Long gone to Saskatchewan
E
Well it's a hell of a battle to try to raise cattle
A
In the prettiest place on the hoof
B7
Oil refiners and lot sub-dividers
E
Got land prices right through the roof

They got value's distorted and my brow's all contorted

With the words that the banker just wrote

Me and the missus, we love the cow business

Took jobs just to keep us afloat

The old lady's a waitress in three different places

And still can't afford her own car

I've been drivin' grader, I'm a smooth operator

Wonderin' where all the gravel roads are

I like Alberta, but dang ain't ya hearda

How much it can cost to buy oats?

I'll always love her and think kindly of her

But I got no money left over for smokes
E
Well I'm long gone to Saskatchewan
F#
Long gone to Saskatchewan
A
Where the gettin's good if you're gettin' gone
B7
I'm gonna put my boots and my hat back on
A
Adios, goodbye, farewell, so long
