                     D                    Em                    A7                 D
Four strong winds that blow lonely, seven seas that run high,
                  D                        G                             A   - A7
all those things that won t change come what may.
                D                        Em                   A7                      D
For our good times are all gone, and I'm bound for movin' on,
             G                 Bm                    A    - A7
I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way.
 
                   D                   Em                             A7                       D
1. Think I'll go down to Alberta, where there s good times in the fall,
                             D                         Em                       A    - A7
    I ve got some friends that I can stay with, working for.
              D                                   Em          A7                            D
    But I wish you'd change your mind, if I asked you one more time,
                       G                           Bm                         A - A7
    but we've gone through that a hundred times or mo ..re.

2. If I get there before the snow flies, and if things are lookin  good,
                    D              Em                          A      - A7
    I could meet you if I sent you down the fare.
                  D                      Em                       A7                           D
    But by then it would be winter, there ain t too much for you to do,
                       G                             Bm                   A     - A7
    and those winds sure can blow cold way out there.
 
                     D                    Em                    A7                 D
Four strong winds that blow lonely, seven seas that run high,
                  D                        G                             A   - A7
all those things that won t change come what may.
                D                        Em                   A7                      D
For our good times are all gone, and I'm bound for movin' on,
             G                 Bm                    A    - A7 - D
I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way.
