Chords for Saginaw, Michigan Performed By Brennen Leigh And Noel McKay

_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ I was born _ _ _ [E] in Saginaw, [A] Michigan.
_ _ _ _ [D] I grew up in a house in [E] Saginaw, babe.
_ _ My dad was a poor, [A] hard-working _ [D] Saginaw fisherman.
_ [E] _ Too [A] many times he came [E] home with too little [A]
pay.
_ _ _ I loved a girl _ [E] _ in [A] Saginaw, Michigan.
_ _ _ _ [D] The daughter [A] of a wealthy, [E] wealthy man.
_ _ But he [A] called me _ that son of a [D] Saginaw fisherman.
_ _ _ Not good [A]
enough _ [E] to lay this [A] daughter's nest.
_ _ _ Now [D] I'm up here in a lab, _ _ _ digging in the ground for gold.
_ _ [E]
Crazy food I'm digging in [A] this frozen ground so cold. _ _
_ And [D] with each new day, I pray I'll [A] strike it rich.
And then _ I'll go [E] back home and claim my love.
_ [A] Saginaw, Michigan. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I wrote my love.
_ [E] _
_ _ [A] Saginaw, Michigan. _ _ _
_ _ [D] Said, honey, I'm coming [A]
home.
Please wait [E] for me. _ _
You can tell your dad _ [A] I'm coming back, [D] oh, richer man. _
I've hit [A] the biggest strike [E] in Klondike [A] history. _ _ _ _
Her dad met _ me [E] _
in [A] Saginaw. _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] He gave me a great [A] big party with _ [E] champagne. _ _ _
He [A] said, son, _ you're a wise, young, [D] ambitious man. _
Will you sell your father [E]-in-law your Klondike claim? _ _ _
So now [D] he's up there in a lab, _ _ [A] _ digging in the cold, cold ground.
_ [E] The greedy fool is looking for [A] the gold I've never found.
_ _ _ _ [D] It serves him right.
[E] No [D] one [A] here is missing him.
_ _ _ [E] Least of all the _ newlyweds of _ [A]
Saginaw, Michigan.
_ _ We're the [E] happiest man alive. _ _ _
Saginaw, [A] Michigan.
_ _ He's ashamed to show his face.
_ _ _ [A]
Saginaw, Michigan.
