Standard tuning - No capo


Verse 1:
         D                           G 
I have walked on the strand of the Grand Banks of Newfoundland
D                              A
Lazed on the ridge of the Miramichi
           D                          G
Seen the waves tear and roar on the stone coast of Labrador
D                              A              D
Watched them roll back to the Great Northern Sea


Verse 2:
          D                         G
I have welcomed the dawn from the fields of Saskatchewan
D                                   A
Followed the sun to the Vancouver shore
D                                  G
Watched it climb shiny new up the snow peaks of Caribou
D                           A            D
Up to the clouds where the wild Rockies soar
Chorus:
           A                               D
From the Vancouver Island to the Alberta Highland
            Bm            A         E7        A7             
'Cross the Prairies, the lakes to Ontario's towers
          D                             G
From the sound of Mount Royal's chimes, up to the Maritimes
D                         A             D
Something to sing about, this land of ours

Verse 3:
        D                         G
I have wandered my way to the wild wood of Hudson Bay
D                       A
Treated my toes to Quebec's morning dew
            D                              G
Where the sweet summer breeze kissed the leaves of the maple trees
D                            A           D
Sharing this song that I'm singing with you


Verse 4:
            D                                             G
I have felt in my heart something I thought my never start
    D                                                       A
A song deep inside that I felt all along
     D                                                  G
A voice of you and me that has grown into harmony
 D                                A               D
Giving this world a lesson in song

Chorus: 
           A                       D
From the Vancouver Island to the Alberta Highland
             Bm           A         E7        A7             
'Cross the Prairies, the lakes to Ontario's towers
          D                             G
From the sound of Mount Royal's chimes, up to the Maritimes
D                          A           D
Something to sing about, this land of ours


Verse 5:
             D                        G
Yes there's something to sing about, tune up a string about
D                              A
Call out in chorus or quietly hum
       D                               G
Of a land that is still young, with a ballad that's still unsung
D                       A               D
Telling the promise of great things to come

Chorus:
             A                      D
I'm talkin' Vancouver Island to the Alberta Highland
             Bm           A        E7         A7             
'Cross the Prairies, the lakes to Ontario's towers
           D                            G
From the sound of Mount Royal's chimes, up to the Maritimes
D                         A            D
Something to sing about, this land of ours



Chorus:
             A                       D
I'm talkin' Vancouver Island to the Alberta Highland
           Bm              A        E7        A7             
'Cross the Prairies, the lakes to Ontario's towers
          D                             G
From the sound of Mount Royal's chimes, up to the Maritimes
D                         A             D
Something to sing about, this land of ours


              A
Yes there's something to sing about...
               D
This land of ours!
