Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [D]rode [G]you[Em]r oc[A]ean [D]liner to
New[A]foundland
Where [B]I made a [Bm]living in an iron [A]mine
When [G]I got my fill I went to
Nova
Sco[A]tia
And I [E]fished them salty
waters for a [A]time
Passing [D]through
Prince
Edward
Island and
New
[A]Brunswick I [Bm]could see them rocks
and cliffs of solid [A]stone
Listening [G]to the seagulls
calling to each [A]other
Made me miss my darling and
my distant [D]home
Canadian
Paci[A]fic, [Em]carry[A] me 3 ,000 miles[D]
Through the valleys and the [G]forest
[A]To the sunshine of her smi[D]le
Cross the plains and rugged [A]mountain[Em]s
[A]Keep this wandering boy from har[D]m
Canadian
Pa[G]cific, [A]take me to my baby's [D]arms
The
Atlantic disappeared on the ho[A]rizon
And
Que[Bm]bec lay waitin' for
me down the [A]track
For a [G]while I drove a truck
to keep from [A]starvin'
In
[E]Ontario I was a lumber[A]jack
Manito[D]ba and
Saskatchewan then [A]followed
Where the wheat [Bm]fields and the old
Red
River [A]flows
In the [G]quiet hours your whistle
on the [A]prairie
Touched my heart and set
my memories [D]aglow[Eb]
I could feel the nearness of her warm,
soft [Bb]kisses
When [Cm]you rolled in[C]to
Alberta, westward [Bb]bound
I worked [Ab]on an oil rig to make some mo[Bb]ney
For a [F]ticket to the sweetest
[Fsus4]girl arou[Bb]nd
Pushing [Eb]on past
Lake
Louise and all its [Bb]splendor
Where [Cm]the trees and
Rockies touch the sky [Bb]above
I got [Ab]to
British
Columbia in [Bb]heaven
On your tracks I made it back
to my true [Eb]love
Canadian
Paci[Bbsus4]fic[Fm]
[Bb]Carried me three thousand [Eb]miles
Through the valleys and the [Ab]forest
[Bb]To the sunshine of her s[Eb]mile
Across the plains and rugged
[Bbsus4]moun tains[Fm][Bb]
You kept this one good
boy from [Eb]harm
Canadian
Paci[Ab]fic
[Bb]You took me to my baby's a[Eb]rms
Canadian
Paci[Bbsus4]fic[Fm][Bb]
Carried me 3 ,000 [Eb]miles,
through the valleys and the [Ab]forest.
