Saginaw Michigan Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 I was Aborn Ein Saginaw, AMichigan

 I grewD up in a Ahouse on ESaginaw bay

 My dadA was a poor, hard working Saginaw Dfisherman

 too many Atimes he cameE home with too little Apay

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.

Chorus

 Now I'm Dup here in Alaska looking around for gAold

 like a cErazy fool I'm diggin in these frozen gArounds a cold

 But withD each new day I pray I'll strike it riAch and then

 I'll go Eback home and claim my love in SaginawA, Michigan

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."

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?"

Chorus

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.

 We're the hEappiest man and wife in Saginaw, AMichigan

 He's ashameEd to show his face in Saginaw, MiAchigan
