[INTRO]
B
B F# G#m
I've been to Paris, it's smelly and cold
B F#
I've been to Athens, where the buildings are old
B B E
I've walked 'cross Tasmania in the antarctic dawn
B F# B
But it just don't compare with ol' Saskatchewan
B F# G#m
'Cause I've skied in the Rockies, I've walked the white sands
B F#
I've known people who could not find their ass with both hands
B B E
I've sailed to Tahiti, seen the Northern Lights
B F# B
And, babe, would you meet me in Moose Jaw tonight?
E B G#m
'Cause I've sailed the deep ocean, I've flown the big sky
E B F#
Traveled the Silk Road from Rome to Shanghai
B E B
Been to Sydney and Singapore and ol' Ballyhai
B F# B
But I've been to Moose Jaw, now I can die
B F# G#m
We can stroll 'round the city, say 'Hi' to the cop
B F#
See the light that says 'Go' and the sign that says 'Stop'
B B E
We can walk through the village square without any fear
B F# B
We can go see a movie that came out last year
E B G#m
I've seen the Big Apple, the Oracle at Delphi
E B F#
Wailed at the Wailing Wall, walked the Sinai
B E B
Bought hash in Amsterdam, golfed in Dubai
B F# B
But I've been to Moose Jaw, kiss my ass good-bye
F# E
Calgary's not finished and Montreal's broke
D# G#
Vancouver's a hellhole, Toronto's a joke
F# E
Winnipeg's freezing the whole damn year round
D# C#
And Regina actually smells like it sounds
B F# G#m
Please come to Moose Jaw if you don't believe me
B F#
Where you can see for miles that there's nothing to see
B B E
Our days will be perfect, our nights will be full
B F# B
And each weekend we'll go to the big tractor pull
E B G#m
I've been robbed blind in Rio, jailed in Paraguay
E B F#
Scalped tickets in Bangkok for 'The King And I'
B E B
But I'd give up the sultanate of all Brunei
B F# B
'Cause I've been to Moose Jaw, now I can die
B E B
Wiped my ass with the Dead Sea Scrolls, tell you no lie
B F# B
I've been to Moose Jaw, now I can die
B F# E
I did this song in Moose Jaw—and it died
[ENDING]
B F# B
[Because they have no sense of humour about themselves]
