The Lakes Of Canada
Sufjan Stevens
Text File
Originally by The Innocence Mission
but personally, I like Sufjan's cover better.
I tabbed it from this video that is filmed well
too: http://youtube.com/watch?v=uceNZtKZAnc
here is the guitar tab for the key he does it in the video
the second half of the lyrics is in banjo tab.
I just split the type of tab it is so you can have the full
lyrics and so I didnt have to put the full song up twice.
enjoy, this is a fun song to play.
Guitar:
Standard tuning and all, capo on 4 please.
F C
Look for me another day.
G
I feel that I could change,
Dm
I feel that I could change.
F C
There's a sudden joy that's like
G
a fish, a moving light;
Dm
I thought I saw it
F C
rowing on the lakes of Canada
Dm C
Oh laughing man, what have you won?
Am F
Don't tell me what cannot be done.
Dm C
My little mouth, my winter lungs,
Am F
don't tell me what can't be done.
Banjo:
Standard tuning and all, capo on 2 please.
C G
Walking in the circle of a flashlight
D Am
someone starts to sing, to join in.
C G
Talk of loneliness in quiet voices.
D Am
I am shy but you can reach me.
C G
Rowing on the lakes of Canada,
C G
Rowing on the lakes of Canada,
C G
Oh laughing man, what have you won?
Em Am
Don't tell me what cannot be done.
C G
My little mouth, my winter lungs,
Em Am
don't tell me what cannot be done.
