Tom: Eb
G# D#
Round hair and blue eyes, I was skinny and six
Bb F
I had second-hand skates and a new hockey stick
Bb D#
It was northern Alberta and nobody thought
G# D#
That the kid from the farm would amount to a lot
(Verse)
G# D#
Growing up how I did, well I knew how to work
Bb F
So I practiced my first year’s guitar til I hurt
Bb D#
Now I travel around and they pay me to play
G# D#
And when people ask me I’m so proud to say
(Chorus)
Bb D#
I’m a Canadian kid, born and bred
Bb G# Bb
Have two boots, and to zed
D# Bb D#
Anywhere in this world that I may lay my head
Bb F
I’ll still always be a Canadian kid
(Verse)
G# D#
Now I sing everywhere and more that I see
Bb F
The more that I know that I’m lucky to be
Bb D#
In a land where I’m sittin on top of the world
G# D#
With my 5% beer and Canadian girls
(Chorus x2)
Bb D#
I’m a Canadian kid, born and bred
Bb G# Bb
Have two boots, and to zed
D# Bb D#
Anywhere in this world that I may lay my head
Bb F
I’ll still always be a Canadian kid
Bb F
I’ll still always be a Canadian kid
