Oh Canada

INTRO: (SPOKEN)
 D#m
More informatiomn has come to light 
about 3 year old
Syrian boy Alan Kurdi whose body was
 found recently washed
up on a beach in Turkey. Refugee 
advocates now say his
families ultimate goal was to reach 
asylum in Canada.


VERSE:
        D#m                        
He was carried from the water by a 
 C#  G#
soldier
        D#m                        
And the picture screams a thousand 
           C#  G#
different words
        D#m                        
He was running from the terror with
      C# G#
 his father
    D#m                            
Who once believed that nothing 
       C# G#
could be worse


        D#m                      
So he’d handed a man two thousand 
           C# G#
precious dollars
              D#m             
The way you’d rest a bird in a 
             C# G#
lion’s open jaw
        D#m                        
And he told the boys that Canada 
  C#  G#
was waiting

                B                  
That there was hope upon her golden
   C#
 shores
        B                          
But at night he said a quiet prayer
           C#
 into the wind


CHORUS:

    B  F#              C#     D#m
Oh Canada, if you can hear me now
 F#       B             F#       
Won’t you open up your arms 
        C#
towards the sea?
F#  B  F#              C#     D#m
Oh Canada, if you can help me out
 F#         B                 F# 
All I ever wanted was a safe 
         C#  B  F# F# C# D#m B F# C#
place for my fam-i-ly


VERSE:
         D#m                   
Well the days were long but the 
                   C# G#
nights were even longer
        D#m                        
And the baby boys never left their 
          C# G#
mothers’ side
        D#m                        
But the boat was small and the 
                C#  G#
waves were getting stronger
            B                    
And they began to fear they’d not 
     C#
survive

       D#m                       
So the father said “We gotta hold 
             C# G#
each other tighter
        D#m                     
I’m not losing everything I love 
    C# G#
tonight
          D#m                    
And we’ve come so far I know that 
            C#  G#
out there somewhere
            B                      
There’s a place where we won't have
                  C#
 to fear for our lives”
           B                       
But as he held onto the side of the
          F#               C#
 boat he looked up at the sky


CHORUS:
F#  B  F#              C#     D#m
Oh Canada, if you can hear me now
 F#       B             F#       
Won’t you open up your arms 
       C#
towards the sea

Oh my Canada, if you can help me out

The sea is churning I think we’re 
   F#    C# B  F#  C#  D#m  B  F# C#
going doooooooooooooooown


F#  B  F#              C#     D#m
Oh Canada, if you can hear me now

Won’t you open up your arms

Oh, anyone please help me out
            B                 F#  
All I ever wanted was a safe place
         C#   B  F#  C#  D#m   
 for my familyyyyyyyyyyy
B  F# C#

           D#m                   
There’s a million ways to justify 
      C# G#
your fear
           D#m                   
There’s a million ways to measure 
          C# G#
out your words
        D#m                 F#    
But the body of Alan being laid 
        C#
upon the sand
         B
Tell me how do you live with that?
