 E                          Am
Don't know a better way of being alone
                     H7
Down in my land, my beautiful land.
   Em                Am
A nature of God all covered with snow,
                           H7
A pleasure to be and good times to spend.
        Em
Alaska country,
          Am
Stay the way you are.
        Em
Alaska country,
            H7
You never cheated me.
 Em         Am
Now one and only,
H7                Em D Em Em D Em
  Alaska country.
Seven days a week and seven lonely nights,
Plenty of time to find myself again.
So that I'll know what I was created for,
To have a good life where there's no pain.
        Em
Alaska country,
          Am
Stay the way you are.
        Em
Alaska country,
            H7
You never cheated me.
 Em         Am
Now one and only,
H7
  Alaska country.

Don't know a better way of being alone
Down in my land, my beautiful land.
A nature of God all covered with snow,
A pleasure to be and good times to spend.

Stay the way you are.
