There's a / spot far away you / all know well,

    / C                                   / G
A / place that's called the / Lookout Hill,

How I / love that place no / one can tell.

There are / trout streams there and / moose and deer,

              / C                               / G
But you / never lay eyes on a / grizzly  bear,

      / C                               / F    -     C
So / take your pack up - / on your back, and

Head your way up the / Lookout Track.

There'll / be a time when / I am old, and

      / C                               / G
My / poor old bones are / stiff and cold,

    / C                                               / F    -    C
I'll / head to the Lookout with the / setting sun,

             / C                                        / G    -   C
When I / smell those spruce trees / I'll feel young.

When the / lakes are frozen and the / brooks are high, and

        / C                             / G
You / hear the owl in the / moonlight cry,

    / C                                        / F    -   C
I'll / head to the Lookout with / spirits high,

             / C                              / G      -    C
Good - / bye my friends, it's / there I'll die.
