Canada In My Pocket by Michael Mitchell
Canada In My Pocket
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Chorus]
D Bm G D
I've got Canada in my pocket – a little bit of history
D Bm G A
A penny, and a nickel, and a quarter, and a dime mean a lot to you and me
G D G A
It's more than pocket money - they're the symbols of our land
D Bm G A D
They're pictures of important things for which this country stands
[Verse 1]
D Bm G D
The maple leaf, the maple leaf - is a beautiful sight to see!
D Bm G A
It waves 'hello' to us below from the branch of a maple tree
G D G A
And with every year that passes it grows like you and me
D Bm G A D
So should we all grow straight and tall like the lovely maple tree
[Chorus]
D Bm G D
I've got Canada in my pocket – a little bit of history
D Bm G A
A penny, and a nickel, and a quarter, and a dime mean a lot to you and me
G D G A
It's more than pocket money - they're the symbols of our land
D Bm G A D
They're pictures of important things for which this country stands
[Verse 2]
D Bm G D
The beaver, oh the beaver - is a beautiful sight to see
D Bm G A
He's a happy, furry animal, like a teddy bear with teeth
G D G A
He's never ever lazy; he works all night and day
D Bm G A D
Building houses for his family, he's got no time to play
[Chorus]
D Bm G D
I've got Canada in my pocket – a little bit of history
D Bm G A
A penny, and a nickel, and a quarter, and a dime mean a lot to you and me
G D G A
It's more than pocket money - they're the symbols of our land
D Bm G A D
They're pictures of important things for which this country stands
[Verse 3]
D Bm G D
The schooner, oh the schooner - is a beautiful sight to see!
D Bm G A
It's a great big wooden sailing ship that can sail across the sea
G D G A
It brings to other countries the things their people need
D Bm G A D
And brings back things like chocolate bars and books for us to read
[Chorus]
D Bm G D
I've got Canada in my pocket – a little bit of history
D Bm G A
A penny, and a nickel, and a quarter, and a dime mean a lot to you and me
G D G A
It's more than pocket money - they're the symbols of our land
D Bm G A D
They're pictures of important things for which this country stands
[Verse 4]
D Bm G D
The caribou, the caribou - is a beautiful sight to see!
D Bm G A
He's a really big strong animal, I'm sure you'll all agree
G D G A
He looks like Santa's reindeer and he loves it when the wind blows cold
D Bm G A D
So he lives up north with the polar bears ‘cause he likes the ice and snow
[Chorus]
D Bm G D
I've got Canada in my pocket – a little bit of history
