[Verse 3]
You always wear it with a sense of style
I like to wear it with a skirt
I'll be okay in just a little while
And I open my big mouth and yell

[Chorus]
Did you laugh? did you cry?
Did you say my name with a bit of a sigh?
I really don't know
Did you laugh? did you cry?
Did you say my name with a bit of a sigh?

[Instrumental]
G, D, Em7 (x4)

[Bridge] 
(Same chords as the verses)
Take off, to the great white north
Take off, it's a beauty way to go
Take off, to the great white north
Take off, it's a beauty way to go

[Outro]
Where is this thing that I call heaven?
Did you laugh at that?
What is it doing here on earth?
Did you cry?
Who is this holding my umbrella?
Did you say my name with a sigh?
Who is this looking up your skirt?
