Canadian Ten


Artist: Butch Walker Song: Canadian Ten Album: I Liked You Better When You Had No Heart Standard tuning Comments/feedback/corrections welcome - darthsylly AT hotmail.com Thanks to Butch for posting the lyrics on his blog (and writing the song too!) Verse 1 --------- E A E Sunshine you heal just as much as you hurt. A B Regret in my veins and blood on my shirt. A E I sure must have had myself a personal best. A E B It takes filling my lungs up with smoke to get things off my chest. Chorus 1 --------- A E Crossing the border, Ab C#m B wasted again, A B E With her number on a Canadian ten. Verse 2 --------- E A E Oh mother, oh mother why do you complain? A B I grew up alright so don't be ashamed. A E My mouth has been cleaner and I may have lost all my faith. A E B 'Til I believe in myself I can't give my conscience away. Chorus 2 --------- A E You're home with the dishes, Ab C#m B And I'm out with my friends, A B E Placing bets with a Canadian ten.

(chords as per verse) Chorus 3 --------- A E North of the border, Ab C#m B A sin is a sin, A B E When you pay with a Canadian Ten. Verse 3 --------- E A E I searched for a reason to not search for you. A B But I feel like there's no place I haven't been through. A E I told myself don't fall in love when you don’t know their name. A E B But my eyes are straight-wired to my heart and just bypass my brain. Chorus 4 --------- A E Sometimes I’m forgetful, Ab C#m B So I’ll start at the end, A B E And call the number on this Canadian ten. A B E And call the number on this Canadian ten.
