Intro

In the Yukon valley

Where I spent my summer past

I was alone in the bush where

G Bsus4

The tide's slow and the river moves fast

And, oh that lowly temptress

That golden witch

We were on the tundra

In a land where the sun don't set

B5 A#5

In the Yukon valley

Where you left me

C Em

You left me on my knees

On the Athabasca Delta

We retraced our tracks

All through the woods where we found

G Bsus4

A compass and a prospector's map

And I pushed off in my boat

With the gold prospector's ghost

Search forever

G Bsus4

But you won't ever find your

C G Em D

Gold

The river swallowed it

C G Em D

whole

In the Yukon valley

Where you left me

C Em

You left me on my knees

B5 A#5

On the great slave river

To the West

C Em

To the West, I'm headed East

B5 A#5

In the Yukon Valley

To the West

Em Am G Bsus4

C G Em

I watched you dying

As the temperature was

C G Em D

rising

In the Yukon Valley

Where you left me

C Em

You left me on my knees

B5 A#5

On the great slave river

To the West

C Em

To the West, but I'm headed East

B5 A#5

In the Yukon valley

To the West

But I'm headed East
