D    Dsus4  D  G    D    D    Dsus4  D  G  Em  D
 
          D              Dsus4  D       G                D
There are times I fear I lose myself, I don't know who I am,
      G         Em     D        G       A7sus4    A7
I get caught up in the struggle and the strain.
        D              Dsus4 D        G             D
With my back against a stone wall, my finger in the dam,
    G      Em           D     G    A7sus4    A7
I'm losing strength and going down again.
       D            Dsus4     D    G                   D
When I take a look around me,   my eyes can't find the sun, 
        G       Em      D      G     A7sus4    A7
there's nothing wild as far as I can see.
        D               Dsus4   D     G              D
Then my heart turns to Alaska     and freedom on the run, 
G     Em       D      G       A7sus4    A7
I can hear her spirit calling me
 
G      Em  D      G  Em    D
to the mountains,    I can rest there.
G      Em   D     G  Em        A7
To the ri...vers,    I will be strong.
G      Em   D      G  Em        D
To the fo...rests,    I'll find peace there. 
G      Em   D   G    Em   A7        D       Dsus4  D  G    D
To the wild country,        where I belong.
 
D    Dsus4  D  G  Em  D
 
      D                Dsus4  D    G                D
Oh, I know sometimes I worry    on worldly ways and means, 
    G     Em      D      G         A7sus4    A7
and I can see the future   killing me.
     D           Dsus4    D    G              D
On a misbegotten highway    of prophesies and dreams, 
  G       Em      D    G    A7sus4    A7
a road to nowhere and eternity.
      D              Dsus4    D     G                D
And I know it's just changes    and mankind marching on,
G      Em       D       G     A7sus4    A7
I know we can't live in yesterday.
       D                   Dsus4   D     G                D
But compared to what we're losing    and what it means to me,
    G       Em       D         G    A7sus4    A7
I'd give my life and throw the rest away
 
G      Em  D      G  Em    D
to the mountains,    I can rest there.
G      Em   D     G  Em        A7
To the ri...vers,    I will be strong.
G      Em   D      G  Em        D
To the fo...rests,    I'll find peace there. 
G      Em   D   G    Em   A7        D
To the wild country,        where I belong.
G      Em   D   G    Em   A7        D       Dsus4  D  G    D
To the wild country,        where I belong.
