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 ,
G# 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 ,
G# C#m B
and i’m out with my friends ,
A B E
placing bets with a canadian ten .

la la la la . . . ( chords as per verse )
chorus 3
– – – – – – – – –
A E
north of the border ,
G# 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 dont 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 im forgetful ,
G# C#m B
so ill start at the end ,
A B E
and call the number on this canadian ten .
