Alaska

I've written a few songs about Alaska, the wilderness and the vast stretches of ground where no person would be is so romantic in the classic sense of the word.

This is just one about getting away and starting anew. Though to be honest I'd probably freeze to death.

(E)
Let's run away to Alaska
(A)
It's so nice up there in the star shine
(G)
We'll buy a boat up in Juneau
(A)
put fish on the table - it'll be fine

Let's run away to Alaska
by the fire when winter comes in
cuddled up together
warm and never parting again

{chorus}
(E)
Let's run away
(A)
not look back today
(G)
start a new life so to say
(D) (A)
I'll love you for the rest of my days

let's get away from here
the epic of our lives
as far north as Nome
in awe of aurora's lights

Let's get away from here
we'll get a sled when it snows
build huts for the dogs
I just know we need to go

{repeat chorus}

Let's run away to Alaska
it's a place we need to go
i want to share it with you
the sun the stars the snow

let's run away to Alaska
The sunlight all night and day
cuddled up together
sailin' out on the bay

{repeat chorus}

Note: There's no music until the first "Alaska" is sung when everything comes in at once, pure poprocks and diet cola.
