[Verse 1]
          G            C           G       C D
There's a faint silver hint of the mornin'
          G         C                G   G7
Where the mountains meet the Western sky
      C                         D       C
And I know from the glow of the dawning sun,
        G              C                   D   C D
There's more to all of this than meets the eye
             G       C              G       C D
Once I was a drifter, but now I'm a dreamer
         G            C                    G  G7
And it's here that my dreams were meant to be
   C          G                   D                  G
So here for a while, I'll miss my dear Prince Edward Isle
      C             D              G
For a chance on the plains of Calgary
 
 
[Chorus]
        C                     D
So tell all the folks in Alberta
G                 C
 I started coming home and then, in,
G          C       G
 Calgary I found a friend
    A7              D7
And took her for my own
C                              D     G                C
 And though it isn't right for me to win the land and lose the sea
 G                C    G      C     D        G
I found a home in Calgary, my home away from home
 
 
[Interlude]
G  F  D
 
 
[Verse 2]
          G               C         G       C D
There are times when I'll almost be leavin'
      G            C            G   G7
When another weary day is at an end
      C                      D       C
And a song rows along on the evening air
      G              C               D    C D
I can almost swear I taste her salty wind
     G           C            G      C D
As I fall off to sleep with a memory
        G            C                G   G7
Of your green fields in this heart of mine
  C            G              D         G
A dream can go free among the fields of Calgary
        C                  D          G
Till it finds its way home to the Maritimes
 
 
[Chorus]
        C                     D
So tell all the folks in Alberta
G                 C

 G                C    G      C     D        G
I found a home in Calgary, my home away from home
 
 
[Bridge]
               C           D          G
If they should ask how I'm doing, I'm doing fine
               C         D           G
If they should ask how I happened to stay
               C           D           G        Em
If they should ask say the chance of a lifetime
         A7     D D7   G
Stole my heart away
