[Chorus 1]
D G A7 D
Four strong winds that blow lonely, Seven seas that run high,
D G A7
All these things that won’t change come what may.
D G A7 D
Well our good times are all gone, and I’m bound for movin’ on,
G Bm A7
I’ll look for you if I’m ever back this way.

[Verse 1]
D G A7 D
Think I’ll go out to Alberta, weather’s good there in the fall,
D G A7
Got some friends that I could go a workin’ for.
D G A7 D
Still I wish you’d change your mind, if I asked you one more time,
G Bm A7
But we’ve been through this a hundred times or more.

[Chorus 2]
D G A7 D
Four strong winds that blow lonely, Seven seas that run high,
D G A7
All these things that won’t change come what may.
D G A7 D
Well our good times are all gone, and I’m bound for movin’ on,
G Bm A7
I’ll look for you if I’m ever back this way.

[Verse 2]
D G A7 D
If I get there ‘fore the snow flies, and if things are lookin’ good,
D G A7
You could meet me if I sent you down the fare.
D G A7 D
But by then it would be winter, not much for you to do,
G B A7
And the winds can sure blow cold, a way out there.

[Chorus 3]
D G A7 D
Four strong winds that blow lonely, Seven seas that run high,
D G A7
All these things that won’t change come what may.
D G A7 D
Well our good times are all gone, and I’m bound for movin’ on,
G Bm A7
I’ll look for you if I’m ever back this way.
