 Verse 
 
 E                                 
 Rolling hills all covered in suede
    D     A            E         
 I'm heat nervous and out of road
 E                        
 Downtown there's a parade
 D      A           E          
 But I don't think I want to go
 E                                  
 Smart as trees in Sault Saint Marie
  D   A       E              
 I can speak my mother tongue
 E                         
 Passing laws, just because
     D        A                E        
 And singing songs Of the English unsung
 
 Chorus 
 
     D         E           
 Well, how could you do it?
     D            E           
 Well, how could you even try?
              D           E     
 When you were born in the water
              D                    E 
 And you were raised up in the sky?
 
 Verse 
 
 E                               
 Front seat stamped by the window
  D       A      E      
 No erasees in this game
 E                          
 Arbitrary as the wind blows
    D         A     E         
 It's another way to lay claim
 E                                
 Ain't no cause for bloodthirsting
  D   A      E          
 In a little town so dry
 E                                  
 Where the angels dance on a pinhead
 D           A         E        
 Just to make room for you and I
 
 Chorus 
 
       D        E          
 Well, how could you do it?
       D            E         
 Well, how could you even try?
               D          E     
 When you were born in the water
              D                  B D E 
 And you were raised up in the sky?

 Verse 
 
 E                                      
 Thoroughbred with their great big heads
    D     A         E         
 Think a mile might be too far
 E                                 
 Highway horses laugh but of course
 D             A                E            
 When they don't know where the hell they are
 E                                        
 Well, smart as trees in Sault Saint Marie
 D           E           
 Victorious mother tounge
 E                        
 Passing laws just because
     D       A           E              
 And singing songs of the English unsung
 
 Chorus 
 
       D        E          
 Well, how could you do it?
       D             E        
 Well, how could you even try?
              D            E    
 When you were born in the water
              D        
 And you were raised up
       D        E          
 Well, how could you do it?
        D            E        
 Well, how could you even try?
               D            E   
 When you were born in the water
              D                 E  
 And you were raised up in the sky?
 Enjoy!
