GCD
[Verse 1]
GCDGCD
Canada....What’s with Canada...
GCD
We got great big cities but a lot of trees and rocks
GCD
And ya the winter’s cold here, wear two pairs of socks
GCD
There’s half the world’s fresh water, to paddle your canoe
GCD
Camp along the shoreline, it’s what we like to do...
[Chorus]
GCD
In Canada (oooh)
GCD
I’m livin in Canada (oooh)
GCD
Float my boat in Canada (oooh)
GCD
Bait my hook in Canada (oooh)
[Verse 2]
GCD
We tend to do things different, we each have our routine
GCD
Some of us eat kubassa, some of us, poutine (Ah, J’aime Poutine)
GCD
But we have traditions, that help us stick together
GCD
Our milk comes in a bag, and mosquitos eat at leisure.
EmBm
Playing in a snowsuit, the True North strong and free
AmD
Hockey Night on Saturday, there on CBC, (or now on Sportsbet)
[Chorus]
GCDGCD
In Canada.. uuuuhh..Sunrise in Canada (coming to you from coast to coast) (oooh)
DGC
He shoots he scores In Canada (ooooh)
DG
I’m a player In Canada
CD
[Verse 3]
GCD
We pronounce the letter R like we’re pirates on a ship
GCD
We’ll drive two thousand miles, on a summer camping trip.
GCD
We wear Sorels in winter, while plugging in the car
GCD
We eat the holes from donuts, we love Nanaimo bars.
EmBm
And we do possess a word that lubricates our speech:
Am
“It’s pretty good, eh” (“It’s pretty good, eh” )
D
and it’s always within reach..
[Chorus]
GCD
In Canada (oooh)
GCD
How’s it goin In Canada (oooh)
GCD
Out and about In Canada (oooh)
GCD
Drop your G In Canada (oooh)
D
Oh oh oh oh oh…
[Bridge]
CD
I’ve slept out in the forest, scared I heard a bear.
CD
I’ve climbed a Rocky Mountain, just because it’s there,
CD
Crossed the great St Lawrence, said merci beaucoup,
DBmCD
Pardon me; I’m sorry; excuse me; after you,
[Chorus]
GCD
In Canada (oooh)
GCD
Politely In Canada (oooh)
GCD
Line-up here In Canada (oooh)
G
You don’t butt, In Canada
CD
Oh oh oh oh oh…
[Verse 4]
GCD
Every city empties on the 24th of May. (Queen’s Birthday)
GCD
If we say “Not bad!”, (“Not bad!”) we’re better than OK, (“Not bad!”)
GCD
There’s workman’s comp and pogie, for when we’re shown the door.
GCD
There’s Canadian Tire money, in at least one kitchen drawer
EmBm
And we have a golden rule that runs between these shores:
AmD
You stay out of my face, I’ll stay out of yours…
[Chorus]
GCD
In Canada (oooh)
GCD
I get along In Canada (oooh)
GCD
Kissed the cod In Canada (oooh)
G
The Friendly Giant’s In Canada
CAm
Oh oh oh oh oh…
[Outro]
DGG
Oh oh…. Canada…….
