This is the most requested song they do. Beautiful number about a western
state "filled with fish" as dave likes to say. Quite simple and here it is:

Verse:1
[G]From Stanley up to Sunbeam
[C]from Clayton on to Chalice
[F]Heading down the [C]Salmon river
[F]To a [C]rangeland palace
[F]Sage [C]brush all a[D]round
Verse 2:
[G]Where the deer and elk do roam
[C]This place I may call home
[F]Where the flatlands [C]stretch for miles
[F]And the mountains [C]touch the sky
[F]And the [C]sun always [D]shines
Chorus:
In Ida[Em]ho, [C]ohh ho [D]ohh x3
In Ida[Em]ho
(jam factory)
Verse 3:
My mind is filled with images
Of saw-tooth bridges
Where the snow melt forms
Cold mountain creeks
Flowin' through the valley down below
Verse 4:
I was standing 'neath the pine trees
On a bed of wild grass
This place has captured me, well far I can see
There ain't no place I'd rather be.
(Chorus)
Finish with the Intro Riff and you're done
