I remember it all started in 1929
When me and Diana came to Alaska
to homestead some of this free government land.
Forty Miles from the nearest gravel [D] road.
We [G] cut our life in the [Em7] Ponderosa [A] Pines.
We [D] sweated hard to [G] beat the winter [D] snow
But the [G] cabinâs up and [A] we got lots of [D] time.
(Chorus)
[D] What have you got [G] planned tonight Di[D]ana
Would [G] you consider [Em7] lying in my [A] arms
I [D] love you more than [G] ever now Di[D]ana
Iâm [G] sure youâre the [A] reason I was [D] born
[D] Jim was born the [G] first year we were [D] here
[G] Look at him. [Em7] My God, heâs almost [A] grown
[D] The babyâs in the [G] cradle fast a[D]sleep
Just [G] think in no time [A] heâll be up and [D] gone.
(Chorus)
(Spoken w/guitar)
[D] Well times sure [G] does fly, doesnât it
[D]Diana
[G] Itâs been almost two years now [Em7] since,
since youâve been [A] gone
Speaking of time, I [D] guess you know that uh
[G]mineâs about up [D]
Iâm going to see you tonight[G]just another breath
or two[A]and Iâll be home[D]
By the way
(Chorus)
