Intro: One Verse Instrumental
/ A / D - A
There's a / spot far away you / all know well,
/ A / E
A / place that's called the / Lookout Hill,
/ A / D - A
Where the / rabbits hop and the / wildcats yell.
/ A / E - A
How I / love that place no / one can tell.
/ A / D - A
There are / trout streams there and / moose and deer,
/ A / E
But you / never lay eyes on a / grizzly bear,
/ A / D - A
So / take your pack up - / on your back, and
A / E - A
Head your way up the / Lookout Track.
Intro: One Verse Instrumental
/ A / D - A
There'll / be a time when / I am old, and
/ A / E
My / poor old bones are / stiff and cold,
/ A / D - A
I'll / head to the Lookout with the / setting sun,
/ A / E - A
When I / smell those spruce trees / I'll feel young.
/ A / D - A
When the / lakes are frozen and the / brooks are high, and
/ A / E
You / hear the owl in the / moonlight cry,
/ A / D - A
I'll / head to the Lookout with / spirits high,
/ A / E - A
Good - / bye my friends, it's / there I'll die.
(Repeat 1st verse then two verses instrumental)
