Alright...Since the only tab I found on here was the wrong key, this is my own tab. I played this at my family reunion not long ago, and my cousins sang it along with me. uncle brought his acoustic also, so I taught him the chords so he could play along. Later he asked me for the chords, and the only page I could link him to on here was in wrong key... So here you go, man. =================================================== The Last Saskatchewan Pirate by The Arrogant Worms =================================================== C F G C Well I used to be a farmer and I made a living fine F C G I had a little stretch of land along the CP line C F G C But times went by and though I tried the money wasn't there F C G C And bankers came and took my land and told me "Fair is Fair" Am D I looked for every kind of job the answer always "No", Am G "Hire you now" they'd always laugh, "We just let Twenty go!"
