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
