	C	G7	C
1)	I was bo	rn in Saginaw,	Michigan

	F	C	G7
I grew	up in a h	ouse on Saginaw	bay

	C
My dad was a	poor, hard working Saginaw fisherman

	F	G7	C
too many t	imes he came home	with too little	pay

2) I loved the girl in Saginaw, Michigan

The daughter of a wealthy, wealthy man

But he called me "That son of a Saginaw fisherman"

And I could end up to claim his daughter's hand.

	F	C
Bridge1) Now I'm up here in A	laska looking around for g	old

	G7	C	F
	like a crazy fool I'm diggin in these frozen	grounds a	cold

	C
But with each new day I pray I'll strike it rich and	then

	G7	C
I'll go	back home and claim my love in Saginaw,	Michigan

3) I wrote my love in Saginaw, Michigan

I said,"Honey, I'm comin' home please wait for me

And you can tell your dad I'm comin' back a richer man

I've hit the biggest strike in Klondike history."

4) Her dad met me in Saginaw, Michigan

He threw me a great big party with champagne

And he said,"Son, you wise, young, ambitious man,

Will you sell your father all your Klondike claim?"

Bridge2) Now he's up there in Alaska diggin' in the cold, cold ground

The greedy fool is lookin' for the gold I never found

It serves him right and no one here is missin' him

At least not the newlyweds of Saginaw, Michigan.

	G7	C
We're the happiest	man and wife in Saginaw,	Michigan

He's ashamed to show his face in Saginaw, Michigan
