       D                   G 
Eight stars of gold on a field of blue, 

 D         Bm          E       A 
Alaska's flag, may it mean to you, 
     D                   G  F#    Bm 
The blue of the sea, the evening sky, 
     A        D               E         A 
The mountain lakes and the flowers nearby.

The gold of the early sourdough's dreams, 
     D         Bm          E          A 
The precious gold of the hills and streams, 
     D                      G   F#   Bm 
The brilliant stars in the northern sky, 
     A            D            E        A 
The "Bear," the "Dipper," and shining high 
  


     D                          G 
The great North Star with its steady light, 

      D       Bm     E       A 
O'er land and sea a beacon bright, 
 D                G  F#     Bm 
Alaska's flag to Alaskans dear, 
     D      Bm        A          D 
The simple flag of a last frontier.
