Midnight In Alberta Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I wake early like I always do.
It's out of [D]habit
even when I don't need to.
I [C]crawl from the cupboards
about seven o 'clock.
It's [Em]midnight in Al[C]berta.
It's [G]noisy already,
people walking past my [D]house
And the milkman's cart [C]rattles its wares
Now a car door slams,
is it [Em]quiet in Al[C]berta?
I [G]walk to the station in the drizzling rain
[D]Stand against the people on my train
They [C]keep me warm,
no it's not that cold,
[Em]I bet it's snow in [C]Alberta
Well [G]I can see the Thames
and the London Eye,
an[D]d old St Paul's up against the sky
When it's [C]one in the morning,
could you still see the
[Em]mountains in Al[C]berta?
Can you [D]hear the river moving?
Are the [C]young people getting home?
Are there [G]sounds from the
prairies on the [Am]wind?
Are [C]trucks still rolling through?
Are the [G]country bands still on?
Are [Am]they still playing music in [C]Albuquerque?
[G][D][C]
[Em][C][G][D]
[C][Em][C]
There's [G]cracks in the sky,
now the sun's peeping through
Making [D]bare trees sparkle
with drops of dew
And I'm [C]wide awake now,
how about you?
Why are you [Em]sleeping in Al[C]berta?
It's [G]half past eight,
I made it in on time for the [D]coffee
And I manage a smile,
yeah, [C]life is pretty good in this town of mine
But I'm [Em]still thinking of Al[C]berta
[G]Yeah, I woke early like I always do,
it's out of [D]habit,
even when I don't need to
I [C]crawled from the covers
about seven o 'clock
It was [Em]midnight in [C]Al berta
[G][D]
[C][Em][C]
[G]You
